"I didn't grow up with this kind of medicine.

I had no idea that what I put in my body had any impact on my health, academic abilities or sport performance. I grew up a gymnast, and I was average, despite spending many hours in the gym. I could have been stronger, braver and more skilled, had I known the impact of lifestyle.

I stumbled across naturopathic medicine when I was trying to figure out what to do with my life. Having been an athlete/coach with a passion for fitness, naturopathic medicine didn't seem too far away from where I was already at. I went for it. I never looked back. I can remember, as a student, when I started applying what I was learning to my own health. I started cooking real food, including the first time I made broccoli (and it was sort of good, at the time). More than 10 years later, I'm just as excited about what I do, as when I started.

You know when you go to doctors and wonder if they practice what they preach? You won't have to wonder in my office. Chances are, if I'm recommending it to you, I've also tried it or am living it. I eat a mostly whole foods diet (allowing for a bit of wiggle room), push myself in the gym, and am regularly trying to detox my home. I've completed dozens of hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions, had many nutrient infusions, tasted my tinctures, trialed lots of supplements, and tried so many diets (except carnivore, since I love my broccoli). I'll be honest, I could see my chiropractor a bit more regularly (wink, wink).

I'm a doctor, but I'm also a mom. Everyday, I'm working to establish healthy habits and virtues in my children, including the courage to fight for the truth and freedom. I'm raising them to be strong and happy, but also to know what good health feels like.

You only get one body, so treat it with respect. If you don't, you'll be forced to pay the price later."

"My journey towards the chiropractic field did not start like most.

Prior to my journey in the chiropractic field, I had held various roles in healthcare administration including, but not limited to, Executive Director and HR director roles. I felt stuck in a system that I felt I needed to be because of my degree. I enjoyed my work while interacting and helping others, but at the end of the day I felt unfulfilled. I knew I wanted to stay within the healthcare field, but not from behind a desk. I wanted to be more involved with patient care. And that's when I discovered Chiropractic.

I did not have a life altering treatment from a chiropractor, rather I had a simple adjustment that opened my eyes to the powerful impact that chiropractic can have, without even knowing anything was even wrong with me. My first adjustment had increased my range of motion, and cleared minor discomforts that I thought were "just part of life". Throughout Chiropractic school I learned that although chiropractors are experts in spinal care, we can influence the body in so many more ways than just alleviating pain.

I strive to empower every patient and give them the tools they need to take control of their health. I have had zero regrets in my career change and am excited to show up at the clinic each and every day knowing that I am making a difference in people's lives.
