What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to innovate in veterinary care while fostering a collaborative environment.

I am a passionate veterinarian with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Louisiana State University, where I graduated in May 2022. My journey in veterinary care began as a veterinary technician, where I honed my skills in animal care, surgery assistance, and client management. Over the years, I have developed a strong commitment to providing the best possible veterinary care and creating innovative healthcare solutions for better patient outcomes.

Currently, I practice at Southern Veterinary Partners, where I focus on general wellness and complex surgical procedures. My experience spans various clinics in the Houston area, allowing me to gain extensive knowledge in internal medicine and advanced surgical techniques. I am dedicated to fostering an informative and interactive work environment for both my colleagues and clients, ensuring that everyone involved in the care process feels valued and informed.
