About Me

Born and raised in Newburyport, Massachusetts, I grew up an animal-obsessed kid. I started riding lessons at age five and was always caring for a pet rat, fish, or dog. Evenstride Ltd. in Byfield, was, and still is, home to me. I grew up there catch-riding and horse showing competitively, which evolved into competing on the UVM equestrian intercollegiate team. I worked as an ICU tech at an Equine Hospital in Vermont during college, and in the Large Animal Hospital at Tufts as a veterinary student. In my fourth year of veterinary school, I fell in love with small animal medicine and surgery and decided to pursue small animal medicine when I graduated veterinary school.

I am excited to have this opportunity to practice Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine for equines in addition to continuing to provide top notch integrative care for dogs and cats. Helping and healing all of the species of animals I was raised to care for is a calling that I am passionate to bring to the table with my holistic practice. 

Besides spending time at the barn or walking at Maudslay with my rescue dog Liza, I enjoy gardening, going to the beach or on the boat, traveling, ceramics, snowboarding, reading, and enjoying life with my husband Luke. I am also a Federal Aviation Administration licensed pilot and fly as a volunteer pilot to transport homeless animals from overpopulated areas in the South up to the Northeast where they are more likely to be adopted.
