I have been apart of veterinary medicine for the past 35 years, working in general practice to emergency medicine. That experience guides me to help the client and the pet through basic to difficult times. I enjoy supporting clients and their pets as they navigate through these times with patients,care, and understanding.
On a personal note I enjoy spending time outdoor with my family, hiking, kayaking and stand up paddle boarding.
