Dr. Zingsheim-Nadeau was born and raised in Lansing, Michigan. She earned her veterinary degree in 2013 from Michigan State University. She relocated to the Kitsap Peninsula in 2016 from Michigan and quickly knew she wanted to raise her family in the Pacific Northwest. After working for other corporate vet practices in the area, she decided ownership was the future for her growing family. She and her husband Michael decided to help keep the hospital locally owned and operated after meeting Dr. Lisa Woods-Zabari and seeing that their values for life and business were nearly identical [citation][4].
