She had an undergraduate degree in Anthropology & Sociology form the University of Toronto, and an Executive MBA from the University of Ottawa Telfer School of Management. She also graduated from the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition with the designation of Registered Holistic Nutritionist (RHN) which led her to a marketing communications and PR role with the Ottawa Integrative Cancer Centre (OICC) when it first opened in 2011. These days, she is excited about the OICC transitioning into the CHI.

She is passionate about using her extensive business and not-for-profit communications experience to broaden awareness of whole-person, integrative care, and to help grow the CHI so that more and more patients can benefit from this care.
