About James

Growing up on the Island and playing competitive soccer, I had my fair share of injuries. I came to Parkway many years ago and was always impressed by how the team here treated me. They were kind, empathetic, motivating, knowledgeable and skilful. These experiences helped me get back to activities I loved which inspired me to pursue a career in physiotherapy.

I graduated from the University of Victoria in 2017 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Psychology. I went on to complete my Masters of Physiotherapy from the University of Western Ontario in 2020. Having an active lifestyle, I fully understand how injuries can impact much more than just our day-to-day activities. I believe in evidence-informed practice and staying current with the latest research. Using a mixture of hands-on therapy, education and teamwork, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

In my free time, you can usually catch me outside enjoying mountain biking, exploring new trails, hiking, and most importantly, eating Tacofino. I am also continuing to find the best banana bread and croissants the Island has to offer. So, if you have any leads, please let me know!
