North West

Born and raised in Thunder Bay, Ontario, I am well aware of the unique strengths and challenges of living in northwestern Ontario. My experience in regional recruitment has enabled me to understand the health care recruitment challenges in the North West LHIN. A graduate of Confederation College and the University of Waterloo, I have more than a decade of locally focused experience in both municipal and not-for-profit economic development and recruitment and retention of health care professionals.

If you have any questions about what I do or the many programs and services offered by HealthForceOntario Marketing and Recruitment Agency, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
