Paige completed her Bachelor of Human Kinetics and MSc in Health and Exercise Science at UBCO. Her MSc thesis examined the effect of 24hr sleep deprivation on the vestibular control of standing balance. Paige’s current PhD studies are centred around the effects of acute cannabis use on various aspects of postural control, including quiet standing balance, vestibular function, and posture-cognition dual-tasking. In her spare time, she enjoys exploring the beautiful BC back country, playing volleyball, and reading.
