I grew up in a small town in New Zealand and moved to the US with my family while still in high school. This is when I started working with an equine veterinarian where my love of animals and medicine led to my future career path. After I graduated from Oklahoma State University in 1999, I joined the team at 15th Street Veterinary Group. In August 2015, I bought Dr. Wagner’s half of the practice to become partners with Dr. Shackelford. I have a boxer mix named Sgt. Joe Friday. Friday was named after the movie ‘Dragnet’ and is a wonderful but ‘special’ dog.
