Dr. Sam

I grew up in Springfield, Ohio, about 45 minutes outside Columbus, where The Ohio State University Buckeyes reside. Growing up, I did not aspire to become a veterinarian, but I worked as a veterinary assistant for Banfield Pet Hospitals as a teenager and greatly enjoyed my time there.

I wasn’t sure of my path when I was ready for college. I initially studied speech pathology at the University of Cincinnati, but after only a quarter of classes, I realized how much I missed caring for pets. I decided to change course, earning a pre-vet undergraduate degree from The Ohio State University and attending veterinary school at St. George's University School of Veterinary Medicine in Grenada, West Indies.

I have more than 15 years of experience in the veterinary field, from my humble beginnings as a veterinary assistant to four years spent in small animal general practice. I view the human-animal bond as sacred, and I enjoy enhancing and nurturing that bond by providing compassionate care for pets and their families.

Providing in-home euthanasia services through Lap of Love allows me to serve my community in an impactful way. In-home care eliminates the stress and time limitations associated with the clinic, and gives families more control over the experience. I value my time with clients and take pride in my role, cultivating a safe, comfortable space during a challenging time. I feel fulfilled and rewarded each time I help a family create a loving, peaceful goodbye for their pet.
