Lap of Love Veterinary Hospice & In-Home Euthanasia

I spent most of my childhood in Holmdel, New Jersey, making memories with my parents and three siblings. I was active in sports during high school, where it also became clear that my love for animals and science would lead to a career as a veterinarian. 

I earned my undergraduate degree from Berry College in Rome, Georgia in 2017, and then attended the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine, where I graduated as a proud member of the Class of 2021. I’ve been lucky to experience several areas of vet practice to hone in on my interests and strengths, including clinical practice in the U.S. as well as caring for wildlife in South Africa and Zimbabwe. 

Before joining Lap of Love, I worked in general practice. I enjoyed performing surgery and seeing a variety of appointments, including wellness visits, sick pets, and end-of-life consultations. I felt deeply bonded to my clients during end-of-life discussions and focused on creating positive memories, although this was difficult in a hospital setting. I frequently recommended in-home euthanasia so pets and families could be at peace in a familiar setting and have a more intimate experience than was possible in a clinic.

Now, with Lap of Love, I am honored to facilitate the peaceful passing of pets at home. Without the stress of transport and a hospital setting, I give pets the gift of crossing over the Rainbow Bridge in the comfort of their homes, surrounded by loved ones.
