Marvin graduated from Thompson Rivers University, as a Respiratory Therapist in 1993 and in 2008 became a Certified Respiratory Educator. For 13 years he worked at Vancouver General Hospital as a core therapist on the spinal cord unit, working with a multidisciplinary team to provide specialized respiratory management. As the opportunities for community-based Respiratory Therapy increased, so did his interest in becoming involved in the community clinic setting. In December 2006 he accepted the opportunity to become a Community Therapist on the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver. The role has involved spirometry, COPD and asthma education, research, quality improvement projects and implementing a tobacco reduction clinic.
