Growing up in Montreal, Canada, with a strong sense of adventure, Dr. Jackie developed an early love for sports and the outdoors. Her active upbringing included running track and immersing herself in various athletic pursuits: soccer, basketball, and skiing, to name a few. During these years, she developed a deep curiosity about health and how the body moves and functions.

Dr. Jackie went on to run track at Dartmouth College, where she studied Neuroscience, fascinated by the complexity of the human body and the brain's role in our physical and mental well-being. Throughout her academic journey, she couldn't help but notice the positive impact chiropractic care had on her growth and development, a realization that sparked a deep interest in the field. With her mother being a chiropractor, Dr. Jackie was no stranger to the principles of chiropractic care. Still, it was through her own experiences that she truly understood how much it could enhance her life. Drawn to the chiropractic philosophy, she decided to pursue a career in chiropractic to help others experience the same transformative benefits.
