A Nurse Practitioner with Master’s in Nursing diploma. I am certified in Ontario, Canada, and officially recognized as a Family Nurse Practitioner by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners.

Over the years, for 30 and plus some years to be exact, I have found myself diving deep into a three niches; neuroscience nursing, medical cannabis, and palliative care. I have bounced around a lot—big hospitals, tiny community clinics, hospice wings, even a few research labs.

All those places taught me something new, how to talk to someone who is terrified, how to sit quietly with someone who is grieving, and how to celebrate tiny victories when bloodwork finally looks good. That shaped who I am and what I do today.
