I grew up in Sackville NB, and have always had an interest in sports and fitness. At the age of 19, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I allowed the disease to control my life for many years. I was in and out of hospitals and a pin cushion for medications. Then I discovered the power of a natural, whole foods diet, coupled with a healthy lifestyle. The results have been amazing. I have gone from a wheelchair to a cane to losing my vision to now crossing the finish line of numerous half marathons, marathons and triathlons. I now have my sights set on a half Ironman distance.

Living a natural, healthy and sustainable lifestyle for the last 15 years along with my personal training, work and experiences as a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, I am thrilled to have the opportunity to share those experiences, passion, knowledge and education to help others on their path to optimal health by being a part of the Rehab1 team.
