Graduation Date: October 2013

Most Memorable Moment at IHN:
It was my own digestive challenges and that of my 5-year old son’s that inspired me to seek solutions in holistic nutrition, which eventually led me to IHN. Things that were taught at IHN opened my eyes in a profound way.  Remembering my journey and then finishing my last course was both exciting and memorable.

Favourite Class at IHN:
It is too difficult to pick only one course so I have chosen my 2 top favourites:

Herbal Medicine: This course really opened my eyes to see the amazing healing power of many herbs like Dandelion or Comfrey that grew around the neighbourhoods I lived in.  Herbal Medicine gave me the knowledge to not only recognize many herbs that grow naturally around my neighbourhood, also how and when to use them to heal oneself and others.  I also loved the herb walk that was part of this course.

Nutritional Symptomatology: This course taught me certain practical skills that I needed to be able to take the vast amount of nutrition knowledge I learned at IHN and apply it to client situations in a systematic way.  I still refer to the course book when I work with clients now.

Currently Doing in the Field of Holistic Nutrition:
My holistic and wellness practice is based in Markham.  I specialize in Irritable Bowel Syndrome.  I am the founder and owner of iControlIBS, a unique method to taking control of IBS.  In an effort to reaching out and transform more lives through my signature program for IBS, I’ve recently launched it online.  I am also a Certified Classical Hatha Yoga Teacher (1750 hours), trained under the guidance of a live guru/mystic in India. It has been an exciting journey for me to support people in their efforts to experience the joy of being truly well.  I am very humbled to hear of the transformation taking place in those I’ve touched through my practice.  My passion is in inspiring, empowering, and supporting people to discover how resilient their body and mind are in healing and generating vibrant health and inner wellbeing, all from within.
