I also love to travel, with the hopes of one day visiting every continent. Outside of the office I love to spend time outdoors, whether that is hiking, kayaking, or playing soccer. I love to see the special connection between owners and their pets and support that special bond by providing access to quality medicine and care. While my areas of interest include dermatology and oncology, the most rewarding part of being a veterinarian is playing a small part in maintaining a strong human-animal bond between clients and their animals. This experience led me to shadow and intern at several veterinary clinics before, and during, vet school. I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility during my undergraduate studies, which is where I truly gained my passion for dogs and their well-being. I then moved to Fort Collins to attend Colorado State University for veterinary school, graduating in 2022. I grew up in Mesa, AZ and attended ASU for undergrad.
I currently have 2 huskies and 2 cats, but I will continue to add to my family with exotic pets in the near future! When I'm not caring for your fur-babies, I enjoy lots of time with my own pets on hikes, at the dog park, and good restaurant patios! Traveling and food are my passions and there's nowhere in the world I don't want to explore! I look forward to getting to know you and your fur-babies! Exotic pets, especially feathered and scaly ones, are my true veterinary passion, but I love furry cats and dogs as well!
After that my husband and I decided to move our furry pack to Arizona to settle and I started working for AZPetVet in 2020. I also obtained my Master's in Science in Wildlife Conservation while in Grenada, then completed my clinical rotations at North Carolina State University. I worked as a veterinary technician for 1.5 years before loading up my 3 huskies, 1 cat, and supportive husband to move to the beautiful island of Grenada to attend Veterinary School at St. I was raised in Texas and complete my undergrad degree at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.
