Klarisse Estepa

Klarisse is moved by human connections and finding our little commonalities despite our different life experiences. A young, bright woman driven by empathy, patience, and a fascination with physiology, she was destined for a life in medical care and nursing. She honed her knowledge and skills in emergency departments around Toronto, culminating in years of nursing at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A search for new challenges uprooted her from the GTA and transported her to remote communities, in northern/coastal British Columbia, where she runs small clinics. Over the last three years she has managed everything from primary care to emergency situations, in limited resourced communities. She has cherished the community connections and is currently back in school to become a nurse practitioner.

Klarisse is always open to new experiences and ambitiously trying new things. In her free time, you can often find Klarisse rock climbing, hiking with her dog Happy (basset hound/Shar pei), portage-paddleboarding, camping, and working on her property near Killarney, Ontario.
