Growing up in an active family, involved in many sports, and with a father on the assembly line at Toyota, I am no stranger to aches, pains, and injuries. After breaking my collarbone playing football, I have been left with restrictions in my shoulder that I wished I had known massage would have been able to help, complimenting the physio I was doing. With my training as a massage therapist, I want to work with those that have lingering injuries and help to get back to normal, or as close to as possible.

I graduated from Mohawk College's Massage Therapy program in December 2020 and became an RMT with the College of Massage Therapists (CMTO) in late September of 2021. After starting my practice in October, I joined the Parkway Back & Foot team in March of 2022. During my education, I was lucky enough to work with the Hamilton Ticats and treat the players after their practices as part of our outreach program for clinic hours. I also worked at Staples and applied my knowledge of office ergonomics to help those find the right office chair for their home or work. As I continue to build my practice, I have added vacuum cupping as a modality and plan on going back to finish my Kinesiology degree part-time starting in Sept 2027 to improve my knowledge and work towards teaching massage therapy one day while still practicing.

My knowledge in the fitness industry comes from a background of taking several Kinesiology courses when I attended Western University, participating in many sports and just general interest in healthy living. I am currently still playing hockey and soccer and frequent Hamilton Ticat home games (Oskee weewee!). As I build my practice, I hope I can help remove the stigmas of massage therapy and male therapists through respect and education of my clients.
