I realized my love for canine rehab and massage while volunteering at a canine rehab facility in 2012 when I took my own dog, Moe, in for rehab.  I wasn’t able to pursue school at that time and went on to work as a veterinary assistant while being trained as a technician on the job. While learning valuable information about the veterinary field and gaining vast experience working in general practice, I felt I was missing out on a passion that I had grown to love.  I went on and graduated from the New England Institute of Technology with an Associates in Science Degree in Veterinary Technology, as well as going to the University of Tennessee for Canine Rehabilitation.   My love for helping geriatric patients and other arthritic dogs lead me to go on and become certified in canine massage at the Brandenburg Massage Therapy program.  I worked in a rehab facility in Massachusetts since 2014 and continued on to do the job I love fitting in massages anywhere I can whether it be in the pool, underwater treadmill, draped over an exercise ball or on a bed.  

​

After my boys went off to college, we moved across the country to begin our next chapter staying in Idaho for nearly two years where we met some amazing people and I continued to grow and learn.  It was after that we moved to Colorado, which has always felt like home.

I am as passionate about my canine patients as I am coming home to my fiance’, Jesus, as well as my 5-year-old lab named Jewels, and 15-year-old border collie mix, Coco.
