What is your favorite comfort food?
Anything involving raw fish and rice (sushi, poke…) with macarons (one “o” not two) being a close second!
If you weren’t a vet, what career could you see yourself in?
I had a difficult time choosing between art school and vet school! If I weren’t a vet, I’d be a nature photographer.
What do you do in your spare time?
Favorite pastime activities include playing in dirt (aka gardening), hiking, and anything “foodie” related.
If you could give only one piece of advice to pet owners, what would it be?
Never take a single moment for granted. Hug your pet(s) every day. And remember to laugh, even when they do something naughty. For example, what does it taste like when you mix chicken stock with vanilla soy milk? I don’t know, but you can ask my cats who decided to puncture (slaughter?) unopened cartons of each and knock them off the counter, resulting in a lovely tributary of savory and sweet.
What is your favorite quote about animals?
It’s actually my favorite quote in general.
“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” – Winnie the Pooh
