My name is Angela Wright, and I am the founder of Align Holistic Health and Nutritional Services. In 2003 my father passed away from a secondary occurrence of colorectal cancer; this time it came back in his spine. The six months before he died I was fortunate enough to be able to be at his side; he was bedridden and in a lot of pain. I saw that the allopathic treatments (chemo, drugs) were not helping him improve, and started exploring the world of alternative healing. As I researched into foods that would help build his strength, I realized this may be the career path I was looking for. I moved to Toronto to attend the Institute of Holistic Nutrition (IHN) and obtained a diploma in Applied Holistic Nutrition. I then qualified for my CNP (Certified Nutritional Practitioner) and RNCP (Registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner) designations. My father passed away before I could truly get into holistic nutrition, but now I am armed and educated to help others with my knowledge. I know this would make him very proud.
