About Me
My work life has had three phases. My first career was practising business law. My second career was mediation, facilitation and training. I continue to provide training in conflict management, emotional intelligence and resilience through Western Continuing Studies and independently.
My current focus is as a nutrition and wellness coach. I have had a keen interest in health and wellness for decades. Overnight, after watching Forks Over Knives, my husband and I transitioned to a whole-food, plant-based diet and experienced great results, including increased energy, weight loss, ending some pesky allergy and digestive issues and, in my husband’s case, lowering his A1C below the pre-diabetic range.
I have attended many summits, webinars and online and in-person courses and workshops relating to optimizing health and preventing and reversing disease. I am a member of Food Revolution Network, NeuroAcademy and support NutritionFacts.org. In 2026 I completed a coaching certificate program with Food Revolution Network.
I am an avid hiker and paddle-boarder and practice yoga regularly.
We travel fairly often and have frequent family gatherings. I have learned to sustain healthy plant-based eating while accommodating travel and non-vegan family members.
