Beth has worked in veterinary medicine for more than 20 years, and along the way she developed a passion for veterinary dentistry. This led her to becoming a Veterinary Technician Specialist in Dentistry, which she achieved in 2020. She feels veterinary dentistry is a bit of an "underdog" and strives to advocate for how important oral health is for our pets. Although veterinary dental care has advanced dramatically in recent years, there remains a gap in education for veterinarians and technicians, leading to many misconceptions and a lack of consistent care. Beth hopes to share her love of dentistry with any fellow tooth nerds who are willing to listen!


Aspirations to advance her anesthesia knowledge led Beth to Veterinary Specialty Hospital, where she currently works in the surgery department. Although she no longer works directly in dentistry, she is frequently caught checking inside a patient's mouth for anything interesting or abnormal. She someday hopes to blend her love for dentistry and anesthesia together to help educate others about leveling up the care they provide in their own practices.


She shares her home with a dainty dachshund mix (Valerie) and a large and in charge black cat (Skippy).
