Born and raised in the Midwest, her grandmother’s care and love of wild animals highly impacted Kelly’s decision to go into the veterinary field. Having graduated from the Veterinary Technology program at Colorado Mountain College in 1995, Kelly has worked at small animal clinics in various cities and states for 25 years, and even spent a few years as the practice manager of a couple small animal practices.
She and her husband have raised their children and now are empty nesters, enjoying life from a different perspective! They love to travel, especially to warm, tropical places and scuba dive whenever possible! They have dove in Hawaii, Cozumel, and Costa Rica, with plans to dive in many more places around the world. Kelly loves to be outside – hiking, mountain biking, Jeeping, snowboarding, obstacle course racing. If the sun is shining, she wants to be playing in it! Kelly and her husband love Labs and Boxers, so they have one of each – Kailani, a 3yr old English Yellow Lab; and Captain, a 1 yr old Boxer; and can’t forget their daughter’s goldfish, Skippy, which they have apparently now inherited! |
