In-Home Pet Euthanasia in Aiken-Augusta & Surrounding Areas

I was born in Miami, Florida, and moved to Conyers, Georgia in the suburbs of Atlanta at age 9.  I have always loved animals—I volunteered at Zoo Atlanta during my high school years and have worked at a veterinary clinic since the age of 14—but it wasn’t until my junior year of college that I knew I wanted to become a veterinarian. 

I completed my undergraduate studies at Berry College in Georgia, earning a bachelor’s degree in animal science with a minor in chemistry. I then earned my doctorate in veterinary medicine from Lincoln Memorial University in Tennessee, surrounded by the beauty of the Cumberland Gap National Park. 

I’ve enjoyed working as a general practice veterinarian, facilitating effective multimodal pain and nutritional management for my patients. I enjoy caring for all animals, but I’m especially fond of felines. One of the most meaningful parts of being a veterinarian is promoting the care and wellbeing of furry family members and fostering the human-animal bond. 

I also enjoy being able to assess a pet’s quality of life to ensure they are living comfortably without undue pain or suffering and counseling families to help them provide the best care for their pet. When the time to cross the rainbow bridge arrives, I feel privileged to be able to help pets cross over with dignity and peace while supporting families through a difficult time. 

When I’m not working, I enjoy hiking, gardening, kayaking, scuba diving, and bike riding. I am an avid reader and also enjoy curling up with my fur babies for a cozy evening of watching movies or Netflix.
