Description

Once the pursuit of becoming a professional athlete had fallen short (and it wasn't really close), I knew that I still wanted to focus my career within the realms of sport, fitness and health.

I am a York University alumni with a degree in Kinesiology & Health Science, and certification in Athletic Therapy, maintaining national certification as an Athletic Therapist by the CATA.
