My passion for veterinary medicine started at a young age while growing up on a large dairy farm. I enjoyed shadowing our herd vet and helping take care of the cows, calves, and barn cats. I found White Veterinary Services through a family friend who happens to be a client and helped me get my foot in the door as an undergrad freshman looking for experience. I started out by shadowing on the weekends and that quickly progressed to a job as a veterinary assistant through college and veterinary school. I was excited when Dr. Bret and Dr. Tammie offered me a job as an associate veterinarian and to have the opportunity to continue working at the clinic that’s been a second home to me. I truly enjoy my career as a mixed animal veterinarian and I may be slightly biased towards Australian Shepherds with two of my own, Denver and Austin.
