My career in the veterinary industry began at 17, when I took a job at the veterinary hospital next door to the video store where I was working. That role sparked a path that led to earning my Veterinary Technician license and building a career rooted in high standards of care.

I spent years working in both emergency and general practice environments known for exceptional medical and operational excellence, and later had the opportunity to manage a high-performing general practice alongside a strong leadership team.

From there, I transitioned into a consultative role with a leading veterinary Group Purchasing Organization, supporting 240 independent practice owners across Virginia, Maryland, DC, and Delaware. During this time, I completed my Certified Veterinary Business Leader (CVBL) training to strengthen my ability to bridge the gap between veterinary medicine and effective business management. I was later promoted to Regional Manager for the East Coast, where I coached and developed a team of Veterinary Practice Consultants. After two years, I moved into a national leadership role, continuing to build training platforms, mentor consultants, and partner with practices to improve revenue, operations, and overall performance.
