HOW I GOT HERE

My love for animals started early growing up in North Carolina on a small farm with a handful of horses, cats and dogs. In my veterinary career I have been able to experience work in many diverse fields; including small animal general practice, sports medicine and rehabilitation. I have found great joy in helping pets live their best lives staying fit and healthy.  But also providing targeted support for taking care of pets in times of illness, obesity, mobility challenges, physical disabilities, and sporting needs.
