Veterinarian Overview
I wanted to be a veterinarian for as long as I can remember and was so excited to fulfill my lifelong dream. I received a Bachelors of Science from Cornell University in Ithaca, NY and later moved to Gainesville, FL where I earned my doctorate from the University of Florida. After graduation, I completed a Large Animal Internship and Large Animal Medicine Residency at the University of Tennessee. Life ended up taking me to Doha, Qatar in the Middle East where I worked as an equine practitioner for nearly 2 years before returning to Florida to run my own practice. Throughout my veterinary career, I continue to be inspired by our clients? strength when they are faced with end of life decisions for their animal family member. It is the same whether it is a horse, pot-belly pig, cat, dog or pocket pet. I am honored to help them give the last and greatest gift of love to their family member. In my free time, I like to spend time with my daughter and our horses, dogs, birds and lizards. My hobbies are traveling, knitting and fiber arts, learning new languages and dancing.
