Hi! I am a Kinesiologist for Meridian Rehabilitation, a private rehab company located in the beautiful city of South Okanagan, Penticton! I graduated from the University of British Columbia Okanagan in 2015 and began working as a Recreation Manager within a long-term and assisted living retirement community not long after. A few years later and after falling in love with the rehab world, I decided to pursue Kinesiology.
A little about me - I grew up on a small lake in the country about 1 hour west of Edmonton, AB called Jackfish Lake. Thanks to my parents I was introduced to a multitude of sports at an early age including everything from water skiing to badminton. However, as I got older volleyball became my #1 sport. I was lucky enough to play on some exciting teams including, Team Alberta Beach and Indoor, Canada Prospects and Medicine Hat College. Nowadays I continue to play many different sports for recreation, but also enjoy wine nights with friends (we do live in wine country after all!), reading and playing with my two cats, Neville and Fawkes.
I specialize in posture correction, concussion rehab, orthopedic injury, neurological injury rehabilitation and mental health support. I offer a variety of therapeutic modalities, including injury assessment, land-based exercise therapy, aquatherapy, Telehealth and return to work support services.
