Meet Our Team
I have worked in ER/critical care and general practice since 2014, after attending veterinary technician school in Illinois in 2012. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my dogs and taking trips to my cabin up north. I find great fulfillment in working in a field where I can help improve the lives of pets and their owners.
Kelly, CVT
Lead Technician
I have experience in various areas of veterinary medicine, having worked in small and large animal general practices, emergency and critical care, and different specialties. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking, and playing cornhole. I’m also passionate about riding horses and am a huge German Shorthaired Pointer enthusiast. I chose veterinary medicine because of my deep passion for caring for animals and providing client education.
Alyssa, Assistant Hospital Manager
For the past four years, I have worked in veterinary medicine, beginning as a lead client care coordinator in Emergency Medicine and Critical Care. After gaining valuable experience in this fast-paced environment, I chose to transition into veterinary dentistry, an area I’m passionate about. My love for animals began in my early 20s when I started volunteering with local shelters and rescues, and I soon realized that working with them daily was my dream career. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my daughter and our pets. We love hiking, swimming at the lake, and taking long walks by ponds and rivers to immerse ourselves in nature.
Christy, CVT
I have been a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) for the past 29 years and have always had a passion for dentistry. Outside of work, I enjoy playing volleyball and spending time with my amazing family and friends, especially when it involves Mexican food and margaritas. I love sharing my passion for dentistry with my co workers and educating clients to help maintain happy and healthy oral health for their pets throughout their lives.
Katie, CVT
I started my career as an EMT emergency department technician for humans before transitioning to general veterinary practice. In my free time, I enjoy various crafts such as knitting, crochet, needle felting, and using my Cricut. When I’m not working, I love hiking, camping, and spending time with my husband, son, and our dogs. I’m passionate about veterinary medicine because it allows me to be hands-on and develop a wide range of skills. I believe dentistry is often overlooked but plays a crucial role in the overall health and well-being of pets. And, of course, I have a deep love for animals.
Amanda, CVT
I transitioned to Veterinary Dental Specialists in March 2024 after spending 6 years in Veterinary Emergency Medicine and Critical Care. I love animals and find this career to be rewarding in many aspects. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking and traveling with my husband and daughter.
