  • About the Doctor:I wore glasses from a very young age. Started wearing contact lenses as a teenager. Had a very serious eye injury that threatened the vision in my right eye permanently. As an adult I went through LASIK eye surgery. When it comes to eyes I have personal experience both as a patient and as a doctor. I learned early in life that vision is a precious gift and cannot be taken for granted. My interest in how vision works lead me to the University of Waterloo where I earned a Bachelor of Science degree with Honours. I was very fortunate to be accepted to the School of Optometry and pursue my Doctor of Optometry degree. In 2003 I graduated on the Dean’s Honour List. After several years in private practice I found my training and tools were not enough to help all of my patients reach their potential. I love to learn. Becoming a member of the College of Optometrists in Vision Development and Optometric Extension Program Foundation I discovered the answer to why some of my patients still struggled despite having 20/20 eyesight. These two groups focus on educating practitioners and providing the resources to implement vision therapy into their clinics. I am passionate about vision therapy. Its power and possibilities are endless! Outside of Foveal Vision Training, I am married to my beautiful wife, Jen, and we have 4 amazing young kids. We love being active. Spending time with family and friends keeps us busy!
