Can you tell me about yourself?
I've been a chiropractor since1988. I'm a graduate of the Canadian Memorial College in Toronto. I come from a family of chiropractors. My grandfather was a chiropractor and I have two brothers who are chiropractors.

I've been quite active with the BC Chiropractic Association and the regulatory board, and am past president of BC Chiropractic Association and chair of the exam board. I'm the BC governor for Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College.

What's your healing philosophy?
I believe the body heals itself and what practitioners do is remove body's inability to heal. I want to create interest and knowledge for patients to be able to help themselves be as healthy as possible.

The body doesn't ever do anything stupid. When the body is insufficient or toxic, it accommodates in order to get you out of a stressful situation and keep you alive. It's the consequences of staying in that state of elevated stress too long that's when people get sick.

What's your favorite hobby?
Painting. Walls and pictures, mostly acrylic, whatever I feel like. Recently I've been doing something called manifest banners. I get people to give me 40 words that mean something to them. Then I paint them on burlap banners that people can hang.

If you were an animal, what would you be? Why?
An elephant. I just like them. I understand they're really smart and that they live a long time.
