She has extensive training in negotiation, mediation, equity, diversity, and inclusion, which is much needed in this arena.

She is currently completing her Masters of International Health Leadership through McGill University. She will become a recognized mediator by January 2023, through the Justice Institute of British Columbia in Canada.
Distinguished as a Fellow of the American College of Physicians (FACP), and of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC), she has trained at multiple world-renowned organizations such as the Mayo Clinic, Berkeley, Oxford, London School of Economics, UBC, McGill, and the Justice Institute of British Columbia, and holds various certifications, including MBA Essentials Certificate, Executive Leadership Certificate, International Studies Certificate, Award of Achievement in Diversity and Inclusion, Multiple Quality training programs, over 30 leadership courses with the Physician Leadership Institute through the Canadian Medical Association, and Conflict and Mediation Certificate.
