For over a decade, my spouse and I have been running Canada’s
oldest, organic, permaculture orchard and medicinal herb farm in the Southern Interior of BC. Here I educate and make my own line of herbal products. Our farm is certified with Kootenay Mountain Grown, of which I am a board member. I am actively involved in Indigenous Education and love giving herb walks and workshops to both adults and children. Our orchard is located within Sinixt First Nations territory and we try to steward the land for future generations.

I have a private clinical practice, giving health consultations and Qi
Gong treatments. With the onset of COVID, I moved my clinical practice
outdoors into the orchard and have had such a positive response from clients that I plan to keep running the outdoor treatments (weather permitting), appreciating the healing contribution of the trees and natural environment.

I am also a Bachelor of Fine Arts graduate of Ontario College of Art and Design University in Toronto. By letting our inner muse take flight, I believe that a very intimate form of healing can manifest through artistic expression. Combining this personal, creative release with the healing gifts of Nature frees us to pursue our true potential and helps us to avoid illness deriving from unfulfilled ambition.
