Since my teenage years, I’ve always va l ued the s t rong connec t i on between community, sport & exercise, and health care in our overall health. Our clinic, Foundation Physiotherapy & Wellness, was built to help connect those pillars of health. With a goal of helping people move pain free and find community through sport and activity, my professional journey began as a graduate of the University of Toronto, where I received both a Masters in Science in Physiotherapy in addition to a degree in Physical Education and Health. Having received a Diploma of Manipulation and Fellowship of the Canadian Manipulative Therapists and more recently, a Certification of Intramuscular Dry Needling, I’ve been able to treat a wide range of injuries and clients. Working with me, you can expect a combination of hands- on Manual Therapy techniques, Dry Needling, and focused exercise prescription to provide an individualized program to help you reach your goals faster. In my spare time, you can find me playing on the rink playing hockey, on the tee box golfing, or in the gym practicing what I preach!

helped co-found this practice in 2011 on the passion of delivering high quality health care in a progressive, non-traditional setting. We have seen this company grow beyond what we ever envisioned! Despite running the business, my heart still lies in helping clients and practitioners reach their outcomes. Clinically, I have a special interest in treating spine and sport conditions. As a certified sport physiotherapist, I have extensive experience working with elite level athletes. I have managed health care teams and treated athletes at a variety of international and national level sporting events. I also have post-graduate certifications in the McKenzie method, vestibular rehabilitation (treatment of vertigo and dizziness), concussion rehabilitation and advanced manual therapy. I use a unique blend of communication, manual therapy, movement patterning and functional retraining to attain outcomes. At my core, I am a family man, and improving myself as a person and father is integral. Another passion of mine is giving back to my community - whether it be through volunteer work, mentoring future physiotherapists or constantly working on improving the business. I LOVE learning about people, places, and cultures. I’m a fan of the Toronto Raptors, 90’s hip hop, and entrepreneurship. Despite my aging knees, exercise and sports are still a part of my life (although more of it is now watching sports instead of playing). I can small talk about ANYTHING, so challenge me!!
