Nurse Practitioner, CPCN

I’ve worked in critical care medicine (ER & ICU) for the past ten years, and enjoy applying that knowledge toward my pets, including understanding gut health and nutritional needs.

I also enjoy going off-roading, camping, hiking and adventuring with my dogs and my husband as much as possible.
