I was born in Michigan but grew up in northern California where I attended undergrad and veterinary school at UC Davis. I then moved to Philadelphia to complete a small animal rotating internship at the University of Pennsylvania and have spent the last three years completing my small animal internal medicine residency at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. Although I will miss the snow, I am very excited to continue my training in nephrology & urology at FHA.
Outside of work I enjoy playing volleyball, baking, exploring new coffee shops, and spending time with my perfect cat, Emu.
