Jennifer graduated from Acadia University in 1999 with a BSc. in Nutrition with honours. While completing her thesis on the role of garlic in treating high cholesterol she stumbled upon Naturopathic Medicine. She went on to complete a dietetic internship at the QEII Health Sciences Centre in Halifax, NS before moving to Toronto to attend the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine where she graduated in 2004.

In addition to being a licensed Naturopathic Doctor, Jennifer is also a Registered Dietitian and therefore has a strong focus on the role of food and nutrition in health and wellness. Her practice is family focused, treating patients of all ages. She has a special interest in fertility and pregnancy care, and enjoys working with women of all ages. She provides fertility and acupuncture support to patients undergoing ART (assisted reproductive therapies), and those seeking alternative or complementary fertility care.
