I grew up in Nashua, New Hampshire with a house always full of animals. I studied Marine Biology at Northeastern University in Boston, MA, where I was fortunate enough to perform a co-op at a specialty hospital in Internal Medicine. I then moved to the great city of Philadelphia for veterinary school at the University of Pennsylvania and met my fiancé. I have a strong interest in internal medicine and emergency and critical care.
In my free time, I love pilates, card games, hiking, and playing with my cat and dog! I could not be more excited to work at Friendship and care for all of your amazing pets!
