I was born and went to school in the booming metropolis of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada.    quick Saskatoon Facts. The Saskatoon riverfront is beautiful year-round and I used to love to go winter camping, fishing and canoeing when I lived there.  Smaller towns and cities in Canada tend to overcompensate and develop "Toronto Envy" and therefore the education and cultural life was disproportionately fantastic for the size of the city.  The only important thing missing was a good Dim Sum restaurant  and a proper ski hill other than Blackstrap "Mountain".

I completed my post-graduate education in Toronto, Canada at the University of Toronto quick U of T facts. I started out in Neurosurgery but found my niche during my research fellowship in MRI, in MR microscopy, and MR tissue characterization at the Toronto Western hospital and was accepted into Radiology. I was fortunate enough to be a Neurosurgical Associate with Dr Hart Schutz and Dr Graham Vanderlinden. I covered call and the ward/ICU for the Neurosurgery service, participating in hundreds of neurosurgical procedures. This provided me with a great clinical perspective as a neuroradiologist and my love of the clinical neurosciences blossomed during the time with these incredible caring and talented neurosurgeons.  

I have four children, including a set of triplets. My family holds the center of my life and I am truly thankful for this grace.

I completed my post grad training at U of T and earned my FRCPC (Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Canada) and was Board certified in Radiology. I then completed a fellowship in Neuroradiology at UCSF (University of California San Francisco). 

I have now been a neuroradiologist for 23 years.  I was a partner in the Radiology Imaging Associates group here in Denver up to July 2007 when I took the leap and set up my own consultation business. My main office is Health Images at Cherry Hills, however, I am licenced in Colorado, Texas, Oklahoma and California and Canadian provinces; I also provide consultations across the USA and in the EU.
