With more than 15 years’ experience, I Graduated with a BSc Hons in Physiotherapy from the University of Ulster Jordanstown, Northern Ireland in 2007.
After graduation I immediately started working in the NHS UK as a Physiotherapist. Very quickly I developed a strong preference to work with patients presenting with Neurological conditions.
I have extensive formal and informal training related to Neurological conditions. I have completed a MSc Module, Interdisciplinary Stroke Care Module, University of Ulster, Jordanstown, N. Ireland. I have a strong passion to improve quality of life of people after Stroke. In the UK I have experience working as a Specialist Neurological Physiotherapist in a hospital setting, a stroke unit, the Brain injury team and in the community.
When I moved to Canada in 2016, I worked as a Physiotherapist at Vancouver Coastal Health within the residential care setting. During this time, I developed a care pathway for patients admitted to residential care following a new Stroke. I feel very proud to write that with the whole team approach this led to the discharge home of a number of Stroke survivors.
I have worked at the Amazing Trimetric’s Physiotherapy and complementary Health since 2018. I enjoy treating the whole person at Trimetric’s. Working at this clinic developed more passion to treat the whole person, always take into consideration the body and mind. At the clinic I treat a wide variety of clients. Mostly Neurological conditions, vestibular disorders, Pain, post injury, Post-surgical rehabilitation.
I can treat pain related or unrelated to Neurological conditions. I have completed many manual therapy courses including IMS (Intramuscular stimulation) and Acupuncture. I am a fully certified APPI Pilates instructor. I have experience teaching Pilates to various populations.
Outside work I enjoy spending time with my family. I love to travel, explore Canada, and to socialize with friends.

I am a hard-working, compassionate, and reflective practitioner with a passion for working with individuals of all ages with a wide range of acute, chronic and palliative conditions. I have a particular interest in working with older adults and with people who have neurological conditions and physical challenges.
My holistic approach begins with identifying an individuals’ goals and then jointly creating a client-centred treatment plan. Intervention may involve hands on rehabilitation, education, modifying the approach to activities, introducing equipment, or modifying the environment. The goal of all intervention is to improve function and promote independence.

Also, postural instability and falls prevention, fatigue management, Chronic pain, seating and positioning, Ergonomics and Home Modifications.
