Profile

I practiced small animal medicine in Greenville, SC since 1998 and owned my own clinic since 2003. I sold that clinic in 2023 and started teaching in the AVS department at Clemson University. I am a member of the AVMA, SCAV, GGVMA, and the AEMV. I have previously served as president of the GGVMA, as the District 4 rep for the SCAV, on the board of the March of Dimes, the Board of Directors for the AEC, and the Board of Directors for Tri-County Technical College Veterinary Technology Program. I was awarded the Young Alumnae Award from the College of Science and Mathematics at USC in 2003. I competed on American Ninja Warrior in 2019 and currently hold a 1st Dan black belt in TKD. I am also a national and collegiate level gymnastics judge in addition to practicing small animal medicine part-time at Magnolia Veterinary Hospital in Anderson.
