Our Team

I was born and raised on Long Island, New York and then moved to Park City, Utah when I was in high school. I earned my bachelor’s in veterinary technology and master’s in health sciences with a focus on animal parasitology at Quinnipiac University in Connecticut. I graduated with my doctorate in veterinary medicine from Midwestern University in 2019. My areas of interest include soft tissue surgery, preventative medicine, and infectious disease. I live with my wife Katie and our two Scottish Terriers, Daphne and Dibbs. In our free time we enjoy camping, golfing, and gardening.

I grew up here in Phoenix from the age of three. After high school, I joined the Navy for six years. I was stationed in South Carolina for two years and served onboard a submarine based out of Pearl Harbor for the remaining four. After that, I came back to Arizona to obtain my bachelors degree at University of Arizona in Tucson, where I met my wife. During school, I was also working full time at an emergency and specialty practice there. I then accepted an offer to attend Midwestern University - College of Veterinary Medicine in Glendale where I graduated in 2019.

I am originally a Rhode Island native. I attended Merrimack College (Go Warriors!) in Massachusetts for my Bachelor’s of Science (2015) and Master’s of Public Affairs (2018). Soon after I moved out to sunny Arizona for my Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine (2020) from Midwestern University and decided to stay. I started my career in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant in high school volunteering at various shelters until I became an animal care technician in local small animal practices in undergrad, and continued that role throughout veterinary school. My fields of interests are soft tissue surgery and dermatology.

Outside of the office, I enjoy baking, traveling, and trying new restaurants with my significant other. We currently own a harlequin cat named Boba who keeps us very entertained at home, but are always on the lookout for new additions to our family. I’m happy to have joined the AMC team and look forward to meeting you and your four-legged babies!

Bio coming soon!

I was born in Colorado but have spent most of my life in Arizona where my passion for veterinary medicine began early. I worked as a veterinary assistant for nearly ten years before pursuing my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, which I earned from Midwestern University in 2024 after completing my undergraduate studies locally at Glendale Community College.

My clinical interests include canine medicine, pain management, orthopedics, surgery, and preventive wellness care. I also have a soft spot for our frosty faced seniors and am dedicated to advancing my skills in geriatric medicine–because they’ve earned their quirks, soft beds, slow-going zoomies, and I love helping them feel their best as they age gracefully.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, traveling, running, binge-watching shows, and attending concerts. At home, I live with my husband, Michael, and our two dogs who very much shape the household dynamic: Petunia, our sassy senior Staffy who
rules the home with queenly authority, has perfected the art of dramatic sighing and believes treats should be a universal right; and Knox, our wildly energetic and undeniably handsome Rottweiler who operates on one (deeply enthusiastic) brain cell–yet somehow convinces everyone he meets that he’s the star of the show.

I look forward to meeting and partnering with you to provide exceptional care for the pets who brighten your world!
