A little bit about me. I obtained my Doctor of Naturopathy degree at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine and I also hold a Bachelor of Health Science Degree (Honours), with a major in Kinesiology from the University of Ontario Institute of Technology. I have always had a love for science and health and throughout my 8 years of post-secondary education, my passion for modern medicine and evidence based diagnostic tools has only grown stronger.
