For as long as I can remember, I knew I wanted to be a veterinarian.  I grew up in Fairfax Station, Virginia with a family who was passionate about furry and feathery animals.  After receiving my bachelor’s degree in Biology from Virginia Tech, I pursued my career path at Cornell University and obtained my DVM in 2019.   I have also been trained in acupuncture by the Chi Institute.  After four cold years in upstate New York, I am thrilled to be back in the D.C. area close to my family and friends. I love working with such a compassionate and collaborative team here at Friendship where we can practice the highest quality of medicine.

Outside of veterinary medicine, I enjoy Hokie football, spending time with friends, and mostly snuggling with my dogs, Peanut and Butter.
