Rebecca graduated from the University of Waterloo with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and minor in Rehabilitation Sciences. After graduation, she worked in a research lab that focused on assessing the role of exercise and physical activity on improving the health, memory, and quality of life of older adults. She taught exercise classes to many clinical populations, including stroke and mild cognitive impairment. Rebecca then went on to complete her Masters of Physical Therapy from the University of British Columbia.

She is passionate about neurological rehabilitation and is currently taking post-graduate courses in the Bobath concept, and is excited to continue to expand and strengthen her knowledge in the field. Rebecca incorporates client's goals into their treatment plans to strive for optimal functional mobility, and participation in meaningful activities. Rebecca brings her experience in health science research, as well as teaching exercise and sailing to provide client- and goal-centered care to allow clients to reach their greatest potential. 

Outside of the clinic, Rebecca is a competitive sailor, houseplant enthusiast, and enjoys taking her dog for walks.
