I joined the Department of Pediatrics as an Assistant Professor with the Child Health & Exercise Medicine Program in 2017.

My research program focuses on exploring the power of play for children and adolescents growing up with a chronic medical condition or disability. My current research spans 3 broad and connected themes, including exploring the measurement of movement, understanding the relationships between physical activity and health, and investigating the role of technology to promote physical activity throughout the pediatric years.

I completed my academic training at McMaster University (PhD) and the University of Toronto (MSc).

My research interests and expertise lie at the intersection of concussion, neuroimaging, and exercise medicine. Currently, the status quo of concussion care is changing from “rest is best” to “exercise is medicine”, as research now shows that low-intensity exercise can improve concussion symptoms. To build on this exciting new wave of research, I am leading a study aimed at understanding the impact of such exercise on not only symptoms, but also brain function.

Away from the lab, you can find me training for triathlons, tending my vegetable garden, or nervously watching Leafs games.

I am currently a PhD Candidate in the Medical Sciences Program, working under the co-supervision of Dr. Brian Timmons and Dr. Joyce Obeid.

I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of Wyoming and my Master of Science in Clinical Exercise Physiology from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. During my time at University of Wyoming, I worked as a research assistant in the Pediatric Physical Activity Lab. This is where I began to develop an interest in and love for pediatric exercise medicine research, specifically the impact of physical activity participation on heart health in child with and without medical conditions. After completing my Master’s degree, I had the opportunity to intern at the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital in the Exercise Testing and Holter Lab. Working with the pediatric population in the form of exercise testing and counselling, I saw firsthand how much of an impact physical activity or lack thereof, can make on this population. This solidified my desire to go on to do research to examine the relationships between physical activity and its long term effects and outcomes on both the healthy pediatric population and those with medical conditions.

Fun Fact: I have an affinity for hiking and coffee shops. On the weekends you will either find me studying at my favourite local coffee shop, or out finding a new trail to hike.
