I am a Registered Kinesiologist, Certified Clinical Exercise Physiologist with over 20 years of clinical experience in cardiac and chronic disease management in both hospital and community settings.
I started my career as a Cardiology Technologist performing cardiac diagnostic tests in the Cardiopulmonary Department (Credit Valley Hospital, Trillium Health Partners) and later transitioned over to the Cardiac Rehabilitation program as a Case Manager/ Cardiac Rehabilitation Therapist (Credit Valley Hospital/Queensway Health Centre of Trillium Health Partners and University of Toronto Mississauga Campus) working with patients recovering from recent cardiovascular events. Additionally, throughout my career I have had the opportunity to collaborate and work with other departments including Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program, Diabetes Education Centre and Mental Health Department.
I also work at My Heart Fitness Clinic (Milton Cardiac Care), a digital learning platform that aims to improve health knowledge and lifestyle management for primary and secondary prevention patients. I continue to practice at both locations, and I am looking forward to sharing my knowledge about patient assessments and interventions within Cardiac Rehabilitation and how Cardiac Rehabilitation programming improves patient outcomes.
