Welcome back to our 2022 Spotlight Series! 2022 marks the 5th year doing our Spotlight Series. We felt the 5th anniversary would be the perfect time to reintroduce all of our outstanding doctors. We are continuing with our Peak Performance Equine Services team located in Ocala, FL.

What do you love about being an equine vet: I love that everyday is something different. It is a career that constantly challenges me to learn new things and is ever evolving. I love getting to work with wonderful people and horses and help further the bonds between horse and rider. 

What is your favorite activity to do outside of work:  I love being outside – hiking, biking, skiing. I finally had success waterskiing this last year. I also love to travel. My husband and I make an effort to have an international trip somewhere new each year.  Not sure yet where 2022 will take us.

If you could give one piece of advice to horse owners, what would it be:  Appreciate your horse for everything they give to you and everything they do for you, even on the days when you disagree with each other.
