What I Do
I’ve been a veterinarian since 1994 have worked in veterinary hospitals since 1987. Connecting with people is a huge part of being a veterinarian. I coach Banfield doctors and teams on how to strengthen their relationships with pet owners.

Why I Do It
Since I was a kid, I've loved every animal I could find. I wanted to understand and help them. It's also exciting and rewarding to help other people, whether clients or fellow pet care professionals, be more successful with what they do.

My Big Career Moment
As a recent graduate, I was discussing cost-cutting treatment options with a client, and she said, “you’re the doc, just tell me what’s best for my dog.” I realized it’s most important to help them understand what their pets need and why.
