A Colorado native, I received a Biology degree with honors from Colorado State University in 2000. I received my veterinary degree from Colorado State University in 2005, and was one of two inductees in to the CSU/Dumb Friends League Shelter Medicine Internship program. I started Red Dog Relief in 2009, which allowed me to serve a wide variety of veterinary hospitals, shelters, and non-profit organizations.
Georgia was my beloved companion through veterinary school and helped me weather life as a new graduate. She taught me more lessons about love than I will ever be able to repay her for. She lost a brave battle with cancer in 2010, but her memory lives on in the inspiration she provides me to go the extra mile for homeless pets.
