I enjoy people AND pets and believe I have the best position in the hospital as I interact with both; welcoming clients and patients as a receptionist since 2015.

My husband, Bob (yes, together we are BobKat!) and I have two grown, married children and we enjoy being grand’paw’rents to their four-legged babies. We have two dogs, a Leonberger named Osa and a very active German Shorthair Pointer mix we call Gryffon. We enjoy outdoor time hiking and running with them.

I receive great pleasure in the excitement of a new puppy or kitten; helping and watching them as they grow up. I’m also grateful for those tender moments, helping to ease the pain when the time comes to say goodbye to a beloved family pet. Our pets bring out the very best in us all!

I have been in the animal business since I joined the Crossroads’ family in 2013, where I started part-time as a kennel caretaker. Through the years I have taken classes, attended conferences, and learned from the best as I currently assist the team full time as a technician.

My husband of 23 years and I have a full house with three children, one dog, five cats, and six chickens! I love caring for both animals and people and volunteer with Nomatic Shelter, where I help cooking meals and gathering clothing items.

We recently adopted Athena, a Staffordshire/Shepherd mix from Grace’s Foundation in El Dorado Hills. We adore her and believe there’s always room for one more!

Animals have been part of my life since I was a young child. My dad built a backyard playhouse my sister used to have tea parties; I re-purposed it as an ‘animal clinic’ and tried to rescue every stray in the neighborhood!

In 2007 I put my animal obsession to work at Crossroads, earning my Veterinary Assistant Certificate the next year. I enjoy assisting in a variety of roles as I work with our techs, at the front desk, as well as completing office projects.

My pit bull, Jersey, is my little shadow and spends her time staying clear of the three feline musketeers, Jax, Oko, and Roca. Warm weather finds our family camping or setting up the BBQ. I’ve become a long distance runner and enjoy plenty of practice chasing our two young daughters everywhere!
