She received her DVM from Cornell University in 2004, completed a rotating small animal internship at the University of Georgia, followed by a combined internal medicine residency and PhD at North Carolina State University through their Clinician Investigator program. Her research focuses on immune-mediated thrombocytopenia in dogs. She plans to continue to combine clinical small animal medicine and research in veterinary hematology as a clinician-scientist at ISU. She looks forward to being a part of the Iowa veterinary community! |
