Faith is currently taking courses at the University of Alberta towards a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. Faith's interest in physical rehabilitation began in high school when she volunteered with Best Buddies, an organization focused on creating inclusive environments for children with disabilities. It was through this experience that she saw firsthand the transformative impact that physical movement can have on the lives of others.

Growing up Faith focused on playing competitive soccer and running track, although she also participated in other sports such as skiing, snowboarding, and surfing. Faith gained experience in healthcare and exercise training through her work as a lifeguard and surf instructor, and she aims to build on this foundation to transition into a rehabilitation setting. Her passion for sports and helping other people has driven her to gain experience and pursue education towards her goal to work as a physiotherapist in the future.

Outside of the clinic Faith enjoys being active outdoors and participating in a variety of sports from surfing and snowboarding to hiking and camping.
