My philosophy centers on fostering a student-centric environment that is supportive, engaging, and conducive to meaningful learning experiences. I believe in the power of problem-based learning as a cornerstone of education. It's not just about acquiring knowledge; it's about developing critical thinking skills and problem-solving abilities. Our curriculum embraces this philosophy, designed to challenge and inspire students to explore, question, and discover. Moreover, I am passionate about bridging the gap between theory and practice. In line with this, I am committed to implementing our problem-based learning curriculum in clinical settings. This approach not only enriches students' understanding but also prepares them for the dynamic challenges they may encounter in real-world scenarios.

Hailing from the heart of Mississippi, I embarked on a journey that led me from my initial dream of becoming an equine veterinarian to a profound love for small animal emergency medicine. A transformative summer undergraduate internship exposed me to the fast-paced world of Emergency and Critical Care (ECC), and there was no turning back. In pursuit of my passion, I ventured from the charming landscapes of Mississippi to the golden state of California to attend veterinary school. The high standard of veterinary care in California not only provided an exceptional education but also fostered a new home-base for me to continuously grow as a veterinarian. Throughout my journey, I discovered immense joy in mentoring pre-vet and current vet students. It has been a longstanding aspiration to contribute to the academic community, and joining the faculty at a veterinary college is the realization of that dream. Beyond the veterinary clinic, you'll find me on Instagram and Facebook as a veterinary influencer, sharing the essence of veterinary medicine through music, comedy, and unfiltered honesty. Join me in exploring the multifaceted world of veterinary care, where passion meets education, and laughter is a vital part of the healing process.
