What is growth? When we grow ourselves, we grow our world. Our view of what's possible enlarges and touches the fire that burns within our hearts and the hearts of others. When we live fully, embracing growth, we live fully in the challenge, in love. When we live in fear, our hearts close and we wall ourselves off from others and more importantly from our life. Seeking a full life demands that we live fully in uncertainty, navigating as we go forward. Watch this space for some very exciting changes coming this way.

Using a deep understanding of neurophysiology/neuroplasticity/neuropharamcology, nutrition, positive psychology, coaching and meditative practices (yoga, meditation, etc.), I help individuals of any age, background, health level and geography to take the life they've been given - the triumphs and traumas - and help them thrive: mentally, physically, relationally, emotionally and financially. I work with small groups as well as large organizations realize they can collectively evolve to higher states, too, regardless of their past.

My last foray at AstraZeneca included analyses and projects that fed into our Global Research and Discovery work. My home was within the Strategy and Innovation function.

My current role is to help AstraZeneca's Global Drug Discovery division become a world-leading project focussed organization with excellent project delivery. This is accomplished by helping the professional development of candidate drug (CD) leaders (who lead Discovery projects through to First GLP Dose). I will help lead the work of the CD Leaders Forum in improving CD Leaders' skills and capabilities, their networking and sharing of learning, their ways of working and interfaces with their customers.

People continue to experience unrelenting chronic pain. For sure this is due to NOT using pain medicines properly, but also because we don't have enough medicines in our armamentarium. Certain pain conditions are completely refractive to every medicine we have at our disposal. My job was to help figure out what changes in the nervous system to take someone from an acute (and necessary) pain into a chronic (and completely unnecessary) pain - in order to return the system to its original state and not just treat the symptom(s).

Primary activities: Coordinating the evaluation and planned research activities of AstraZeneca Montreal pain discovery (pre-project) efforts; coordination of external engagements (collaborations, supported research, etc.); establishing Astra Pain Control’s electrophysiology division (pharmacology department) and the conducting of transiently- and stably-transfected cell lines for whole-cell patch clamp studies, extracellular (sharp electrode) dorsal horn recordings from anesthetized naïve and chronic pain rat models.

Research: Patch-clamp (whole cell, perforated patch) of cultured rat dorsal horn neurons and astrocytes, rat spinal cord slices and HEK293 cells; somatosensory testing on GluR2 and mGluR4 null mutant mice.Teaching: Physiology 422Y (U of Toronto) - Excitable membrane sections, Fall 1996.
