After working as a registered nurse across Canada – and occasionally across the globe, I have practiced as a primary care Nurse Practitioner for the last 12 years.
I have extensive experience working with marginalized communities – and the health disparities that result from unequal access to care. While I specialize in providing care to folks who experience difficulty accessing the supports they need, I have experience with patients from many backgrounds.
