including working with the University of Toronto’s Swimming team and pursuing interests in
cross country, track and field, weightlifting, strength training, skateboarding, BMX, and baseball.
“I have always had a passion for weightlifting and conditioning since I was in high school. Now,
as a clinician, my experience in the strength and conditioning field has been invaluable for
patient care. I often see athletes and active people who come in after getting hurt while lifting
weights. The experience allows me to understand how they got injured and then help make
sense of what’s going on, to build them up so it does not continue to be a challenge. I am a
huge advocate of coordinating my care with personal trainers and strength coaches. I have
found that this ensures the client gets the best results possible.”

travel, learn new skills, exercise regularly, and embrace challenges that keep him doing the
