I’ve known from a very young age that animals would alway be an important part of my life. I attended St Lawrence College in Kingston, Ontario for veterinary assisting in 2016. Since then I’ve worked in general practice and shelter medicine doing what I love.
I moved back to Nova Scotia in 2021 and found my happy place here at Burnside Vet in 2022. I currently reside in Dartmouth with my partner, two cats, a scampy little Texan rescue dog named Bingo, and a small flock of backyard chickens.
Something I take pride in is my calm approach with animals and my ability to reduce their stress in clinic. Surgical assisting is my favourite role, I strive to make surgical days as smooth as possible for our patients, their humans, and my coworkers.
Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my partner and our little funny farm, as well as anything that gets me outdoors and exploring.
