Supporting the human-animal bond is one of the primary reasons I was eager to join this field of work. The most enjoyable aspect of general practice for me is essentially “growing” with a pet. Helping support pet owners from their first puppy visits to senior wellness exams through education and communication.

Specialty: Two aspects of veterinary medicine that interest me are spectrum of care and neurology. While seemingly appearing to exist on opposite sides of the speciality arch, I believe one of the strongest tools available to every veterinarian is their physical exam. Over my career I hope to strengthen all aspects of my physical exam, from neurolocalization to general assessments, all to provide optimal care for all my patients.

My Pets: I have an absolute nutcase of a border collie mix. Her name is Stella and she is all work and no play. She loves doing agility work and isn’t the least bit interested in social play at the dog park. She’s not a fan of flying insects and a large supporter of Costco’s Chicken and Apple treats.

Hobbies: With life so short, how can one not enjoy food? My wife and I love exploring new cuisines —any recommendations are appreciated! While glutinous, I do enjoy eating food much more than making food. Similar to the hobbits of middle earth who have a deep love to grow things, I love caring for plants. Particularly, the temperamental ones. I hope to have a vegetable and rose garden soon!
