​

I am a 2017 graduate of the University of Minnesota. I currently work as an equine private practitioner in a multi-doctor referral practice. During school, I was the president of the Minnesota chapter of the VBMA as well as a National VBMA Vice-President. My interests and expertise lie in the new graduate experience. I like to focus my talks on the transition from school to practice, how to approach client communications, as well as discussing some personal finance.

Description: A outline of tips that I have either been taught, or found out through my own mistakes, that I believe are important for finding success as a new graduate in veterinary practice. (Not Species Specific) - Abbreviated Version given at 2019 NVBMA Roundtables
