I was first introduced to osteopathy by several of my teachers at Sheridan College while studying Athletic Therapy. I was fascinated with their ability to palpate & therapeutically treat people without the aid of any therapeutic machines. Once I graduated from Sheridan College, I knew I would be going back to school to enrol in osteopathy at a future date.
After graduating as a Certified Athletic Therapist in 2005, I worked at various clinics before enrolling at the Canadian College of Osteopathy in Toronto in 2012. Around the same time, I was working as the Assistant Athletic Therapist at Seneca College. During this time, I was able to help the varsity athletes get better by supplementing my treatments with osteopathic techniques. I also worked in the private sector treating the general public during this time.
I graduated from the 5 year osteopathic program (in-class proficiency plus a thesis defense) in November 2019 and opened up my own clinic Hands-On Osteopathy in July 2020. I take great pride in my work, with my goal being to help people live as healthy as possible.
I enjoys playing many types of sports, but I have a great love for hockey, darts, and especially golf. I hope one day to golf at the Masters (a guy can dream), but for now, I will settle for a round just about anywhere. I enjoy keeping things fun, but also recognize when to be sensitive and listen to a person's problems.
