Lawrence grew up with pets and always enjoyed the time he spent with them. It was his mother who encouraged him to check out the veterinary nursing program at Snead State, so he did and received his LVT degree in 1998. Lawrence is pleased to be able to work in a practice with high quality medicine and surgery. He enjoys cooking (trying new recipes sometimes on the staff at AMC), science fiction books and movies, board games, scuba diving and underwater photography.
