I graduated from veterinary school 10 years ago. I went on to complete a surgical internship followed by a medicine fellowship in one of the largest and oldest equine hospitals in the world. Following my fellowship, I took the position of an assistant resident veterinarian for one of the largest stud farms in Lexington, KY. From there I moved to Australia for a resident veterinary position at Newgate Farm in the Hunter Valley which eventually led me to my current role as the head resident veterinarian for Yulong Investments, a stud that has grown over the last few years to become one of Australia’s largest thoroughbred breeding farms. In addition, it also boasts one of Australis largest racing strings. I have now set up two extremely successful onsite veterinary clinics and currently oversee multiple resident veterinarians, veterinary nurses and a laboratory technician. I have a solid understanding of the thoroughbred industry but have also been exposed to other disciplines over the years. Working for several substantial and successful stud farms has exposed me to large caseloads and allowed me to practice a very high level of medicine. I have also been fortunate enough to form good working relationships with many highly regarded specialists which has further expanded my skill set and knowledge base. I have also developed excellent communication skills and excel with organization and time management. My interest areas include all things medicine, especially neonates, as well as imaging (ultrasonography and radiology) and emergency medicine. I’m extremely competent and confident but have no problem asking for a second opinion when warranted. I enjoy working within a team, can follow direction but I’m also a self-starter and highly reliable.
