Bio

Hi! I am an oncology registered nurse and future naturopathic doctor. After four years of suffering with a debilitating illness and no answers, I turned to a naturopathic provider who saved my life. I now have a FIERY passion for bridging gaps in healthcare and improving patient outcomes by focusing on a "whole person" approach. I'm committed to my future patients, and I will do everything that it takes to achieve this dream for them! In my free time, I'm a sound bath facilitator, licensed skydiver, volunteer ski patroller, volunteer chef, and fencer.
