We Are IH: Vernon rehab assistant is on the trail to achieve her goals

Brandy especially enjoys her role when she can make a true difference in someone’s day-to-day life by providing them with support.

Outside of work, running (especially on trails) is a big part of Brandy’s life, which she primarily does as a hobby and during her vacation time. Anyone who knows Brandy personally will agree that running takes up many hours of her week when she is training for ultra marathons.

With her adult children away at college and working, Brandy and her husband, Owen, are living a new chapter of life as empty-nesters.

“We’re able to enjoy the Okanagan and all that it has to offer. I love the trail network that Vernon has established, and my husband enjoys the dirt bike riding that is so close to our home. There’s nothing better than getting outside and enjoying the fresh air and scenery with friends. When I’m not on the trails, you can find me working in my yard; I love having my flower gardens, and don’t even mind picking weeds.”

One thing people may not know about Brandy is that she has been somewhat uncomfortable with change and the unknown; but she’s worked on it, and has made great strides in this area by pushing through her personal boundaries and trying new things.
