I grew up in Middle Tennessee always knowing that I wanted to embrace the challenge of Veterinary medicine due to my love for animals. As the co-owner of Veterinary Wellness Clinic of Spring Hill, I have the opportunity to help our patients live to the fullest and build strong meaningful relationships with their families. My ideal clinic would be jam packed with sight hounds and naked cats, my favorite animals.

I started my veterinary medicine journey at Mississippi State University earning my undergraduate in Biology in 1994, then went on to graduate with my Doctorate from the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine in 1998.

During vet school I uncovered a passion for surgery and focused on high volume spay and neuter to provide a solution to the pet overpopulation problem that I was seeing all around me. I was able to work on several Native American reservations and Nashville Human Association during the beginning of my career, which helped to fulfill the desire I had to be a solution to the underserved communities their pets and families.

In 2003 with that same desire to make a difference in the lives of my patients, Animal Emergency Clinic of Maury County was opened. I, along with Dr. Lembo, decided to open an Emergency Clinic that still focused on low-cost spay and neuter while also adding emergency service for an area that did not have any emergency care available. From that original clinic Veterinary Wellness Clinic of Spring Hill was born with the original principle of affordable best medicine veterinary care provided by an empathetic caring staff.

My husband, Stephen and I are the proud parents of three children, Ethan, Isabelle, and Elijah. We have had dogs, cats, horses, and chickens over the years and are currently enjoying our elderly Great Pyrenees Ziggy, cat Mystro, and new flock of chickens.
