I grew up in rural Southwest Kansas working on the family cattle ranch and showing various species in 4-H for 12 years. From the time my feet hit the ground, I’ve had a love for animals and a passion for taking care of them. When I entered preschool, I planned to be a veterinarian.

I completed my undergraduate schooling at Kansas State University and graduated veterinary school there in 2018. My passions include internal medicine, dentistry, and surgery. I love applying what I’ve learned, as well as learning new skills every day. However, meeting new animals and new people are what keep me excited to come to work each morning!

I married my husband, Dylan, in 2017. We have three children, Olivia, Jessalyn, and Benjamin. My pets include Axel - our cat, Chloe – a Dalmatian, and Charlie – a Chocolate Labrador. My hobbies include running, playing basketball, riding horses, bible study, and hiking.
