Originally from London, Ontario, Sydney fell in love with BC during her undergraduate years in Squamish—and despite a quick stop in London, UK for her master’s, she knew the mountains were home. Drawn to Kelowna for its strong sense of community and unbeatable geography, she’s thrilled to be training in a place that offers both top-tier emergency medicine and four distinct seasons of adventure.
As a former ballet dancer turned long-distance runner, she brings focus and endurance to everything from marathons to ED shifts. She was drawn to UBC EM for the incredible group of residents and staff, the endless educational opportunities, and the supportive, collegial vibe. Sydney is looking forward to soaking up all residency has to offer and is grateful to be continuing along a path of lifelong learning.
When she’s not in scrubs or lacing up her running shoes, you’ll likely find her on an adventure with her young kids, who keep her on her toes just as much as residency does (maybe more!).
