I grew up in a medical family and always knew I wanted to combine the challenge of medicine with my love for animals. Now, as the owner of Good Life Veterinary Care, I have the amazing opportunity help our patients live their best lives and develop meaningful relationships with families and their pets.

I am originally from Findlay, Ohio. I attended Indiana University and earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and a minor in French. I attended The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine and was awarded my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2003. Following graduation I moved out to New Jersey with my husband and spent 12 years treating a variety of small animals. My professional interests include proactive wellness care, dental care, internal medicine, and soft tissue surgery.

My husband, Chad, and I are the proud parents of three children, Liam, Alaina, and Nora. We have had dogs, cats, and rats as pets over the years and are currently enjoying our happy, bouncy, very energetic Wire Haired Fox Terrier, Zuzu.
