My passion? Educating veterinary professionals about finances.

I’m not a vet, but I know all about hustling! I’m a full time lawyer, wife, and mom of two little girls. My passion is creating joyful, entertaining and educational moments for my kids, and I’m known for my homemade organic meals and elaborate kiddie crafts. I know many of you are busy parents, so

Many clients have mentioned that I’m the first black veterinarian they’ve ever seen…I want to help change that narrative. I’m a proud exotics vet and one day I’d like to work in species conservation. I love
I am incredibly passionate about supporting others by sharing my mental health struggles that nearly caused me to leave the veterinary profession. As a relief vet, I love my job again!

I hope to inspire my colleagues to enrich their lives through travel, yoga and connecting with their spirituality.
