I joined the VCA Northwest Hills team in July 2024. I recently graduated from the University of the Ozarks in Arkansas with a B.S. in Biology. While Arkansas was my home for a short time, I was born in Texas and it will always be where my heart is. During college, I worked as a veterinary assistant at a mixed-animal practice, where I got experience working with small animals (cats and dogs), exotics, and even large animals. My passion for science and medicine has influenced my dream of wanting to pursue veterinary school in the future. In my free time, I enjoy going on hikes with my rescue dog, Sammy, weightlifting, and going out with my friends around Austin!
