I help small and mid-sized businesses turn everyday challenges into clear, confident action.

I know what it’s like to build a business from the ground up - and what it takes to grow it.

Over the course of my career, I grew a solo Physiotherapy practice into 10 clinics across 9 cities in Southern Ontario, with more than 100 employees and $8 million in annual revenue. Along the way, I built a team of shareholders, transitioned the business to a majority partner, transferred CEO leadership and continued as a Senior Advisor.

Do you feel like you are wearing all the “hats”? Often the day feels like you are putting out fires, instead of focusing on what you really love to do.

Having a noncompetitive space that allows you to lay out all of your ideas or obstacles, without the worry of filtering for your audience, can clear your mindset to allow strategies to develop.

Throughout my career, I have advised, coached, and mentored aspiring entrepreneurs at every stage of their business journey. My experience includes speaking at McMaster University and the University of Guelph, where I have lectured on developing effective business and marketing plans for healthcare businesses.

Within my communities, I actively work with groups of entrepreneurs to help them navigate challenges, identify opportunities, and develop strategies for sustainable growth.

As a coach with Scotiabank’s Women Initiative, I have had the privilege of supporting women in business as they build confidence, overcome barriers, and turn their ambitions into meaningful results. Helping entrepreneurs grow, succeed, and realize their full potential is one of the most rewarding aspects of my work.

That experience taught me that growth isn’t just about having a great idea. It’s about making the right decisions, developing your people & team, managing resources and knowing when to step back and look at the bigger picture.

I didn’t do it alone…

For more than 20 years, I had the privilege of being coached by Gary Mottershead of Strategic Coach while working alongside entrepreneurs from every kind of business—real estate, financial planning, architecture, oil and gas, and many others.

What I discovered is that, regardless of the industry, entrepreneurs often face the same challenges: making the right decisions, growing profitably, managing the demands of the business, and creating a company that can thrive without depending entirely on them.

Through those experiences, I gained valuable insights and practical strategies from successful entrepreneurs—lessons I used to analyze, scale, and ultimately sell my own business.

Now, I help business owners apply those same kinds of insights to their own companies, so they can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and control.

That’s where I can help.

Whether you’re navigating staff and operational challenges, looking to grow, preparing for a future sale or simply need someone experienced to think things through. I bring a practical perspective and a willingness to roll up my sleeves and work alongside you. I can relate to being lost in the trenches, seeing the light and developing “ladders” or processes to build the team.

Understanding the Value of Your Business

Having worked closely with accountants, lawyers, shareholders and other advisors through our own valuation and ownership transitions, I understand the questions business owners face when preparing for a sale. Before you sit down with your legal and accounting team, you need to understand your business strengths, clean up the weaknesses and highlight your processes.

I can introduce you to the fundamentals of business valuation, including normalized earnings, EBITDA, valuation multiples and Vendor Take-Backs (VTBs) - giving you a stronger framework for understanding what drives the value of your business.

30 Years of Physiotherapy Experience

My business experience is complemented by 30 years as a Registered Physiotherapist, with extensive Orthopaedic experience, including FCAMPT credentialing, and specialized Pelvic Physiotherapy experience.

I bring that clinical expertise to trusted locum coverage for Physiotherapy clinics, with a focus on protecting the client relationships you’ve worked hard to build.

Physiotherapy-Led Pilates

My love of movement brings another dimension to my work. I combine my Physiotherapy background with Mat and Reformer Pilates, offering individual and group sessions that bring traditional Pilates principles through the lens of a Physiotherapist.

Three areas of expertise. One goal: helping people and businesses move forward.
