Starting competitive swimming at 5 years of age led me to shoulder problems by 12. I met an amazing physio named Maz who rehab'd me, mentored me, then wrote letters of recommendation to UBC. It's been a 30 year journey with never a dull moment. Working in Papua New Guinea, following passionate interest in NDT, then manual therapy and now women's health studies have all provided new roads of inquiry, studies and treatment. Now, a multidisciplinary clinic in a town I love that is so, so busy......what a joy.
