She graduated from the University of Toronto with a degree in Nutrition and Food Sciences, and Human Biology (and a minor in French!). She completed her dietetic internship at The Toronto Hospital. Prior to working at SickKids, she worked with adults on dialysis for a number of years. She then left the adult population and worked as a paediatric dietitian at Toronto East General for a year and realized her love of paediatrics. She joined SickKids 15 years ago and has gained experience in a variety of areas (dialysis, Trauma, Neurosurgery and GI). She has been a member of the Burn Team for about 10 years now, and also provides coverage in the other services in the Plastics Department: Cleft Lip and Palate and Craniofacial Disorders as well as Orthopaedics.
