Profile

I received my DVM from the University of Guelph in 2008, and worked in private practice for six years.  I obtained my DVSc from the University of Guelph in 2017, was a post-doctoral fellow in the Department of Population Medicine, and joined the faculty in 2018.  My research focuses on improving the health and performance of ruminant species, primarily dairy cattle and small ruminants.  I am a clinician with our ruminant ambulatory practice and teach in the DVM program.  I currently sit on the board of the Ontario Association of Bovine Practitioners.
