I believe very strongly in removing the stigma around mental health issues in our field and decreasing the incidence of suicide in veterinary medicine. I love peer support, and everyone sharing their stories to help others.
What’s a fun fact about you?
I went to rodeo camp in Northern California for 9 summers in a row.

California, USA
Why are you committed to the NOMV mission?
Every person who we can get help is one more person who will be here in a month, or a year, or 10 years. I want everyone to get the help they need.
What are your aspirations within NOMV?
I want to build the Helping Hands Grant Fund in a way that will make it available to as many people as possible to get the financial help they need. I would love to establish a scholarship fund someday. I want NOMV to be THE organization for peer support and suicide prevention in vet med.
