Cassandra was on a career path in the pharmaceutical industry before a lifelong dream of working with her brother and a desire to live in Ottawa lead her to change course and co-open SoleFit.  Almost 20 years in, there is still an immense pride and joy in co-owning her own business and helping to make a difference in the community.  Cassandra is the jack-of-all trades of the clinic, often found at the front desk interacting with patients, working in the lab, overseeing the inventory supplies, and managing the finances.  Cassandra is a proud mom of two awesome kids and feels very fortunate to be able to balance work and home life.
