Forged in the suburban paradise of Burnaby, BC, Nick didn’t venture far for school—attending UBC for both his undergraduate years and medical training. Some say he never applied elsewhere anyway, and UBC rewarded his loyalty with a spot at Fraser’s Emergency Medicine program. While medicine was the official reason he stuck around campus, Nick spent most of his time more concerned about the flight of a frisbee over the timing of his next exam. However, his years as a competitive Ultimate Frisbee player at UBC have given him the stamina to survive a string of night shifts and the steady hands needed to catch just about anything tossed his way in the trauma bay.
When he’s not in the ED, you can find Nick over-exerting himself on the least relaxing vacations ever planned, reliving his glory days as an athlete at your local rec league, or just walking through the park trying to spot cute dogs. He is excited to bring his passion for Medical Education & Trauma to the team at RCH—and promises to do his best not to traumatize too many medical learners along the way.
