I graduated from Medical School at the University of Toronto and completed my Family Practice Residency at McGill University. I practiced as a Family Physician in Scarborough, Ontario, for over 10 years. In 2006, I closed my practice and joined MSF to work on a project in northern Myanmar (Burma) as a Medical Supervisor focusing on HIV/AIDS, TB and malaria. I am currently active with the MSF Association as well as local and national peace groups.
