Conferences always give you an opportunity to see old friends and meet new one’s! Thank you to every organization for creating these opportunities! Especially to AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association) for these meetings ups!

One of my favorite humans Ruby Perry was honored today AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association) with the Frederick Douglass Patterson Lifetime Achievement Award. She exemplifies the purpose of the award to recognizes the significant contributions to the veterinary profession through innovative and transformative leadership in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, and who has demonstrated a commitment to advancing these values within the veterinary profession and has brought honor and distinction to the field through their exemplary efforts. Dr. Perry - you inspire us all!! #avma #trueicon

I love holidays that celebrate this country and am proud to celebrate and honor this important day in history! Do you know about it but don't really know about it? Today's The Associated Press article gives some insight.

On this Veterinary Appreciation Day, I want to wish Shannon Nowak, BS, LVT, RVT the happiest of birthdays. The Bridge Club is where we are today because of this amazing human being! Her tireless love for education makes our conversations more robust and keeps people coming back for more. Thank you Shannon and Happy Birthday!!

I had the best time talking to industry colleagues about how their companies got their names! Thank you to Virbac, IDEXX, myBalto, and Petfolk for helping me tell your stories!!! https://lnkd.in/g_FwBJsc

Truly one of the best experiences in veterinary medicine! I had the opportunity to immerse myself in a new culture and witness the unwavering passion Peruvians have for veterinary medicine. The attendees, driven by their dedication, flocked to learn despite not needing CE credits. A heartfelt thank you to LAVC and Jorge Guerrero for the invitation and hospitality.

In my first trip to Lima, I am thoroughly enjoying learning and listening about this amazing culture! It’s a keen reminder in life and business- we don’t know it all and no, we weren’t the first to think of it!! #firstculture #historymatters

In 2004, The Wall Street Journal discussed the challenges parents face during potty training. My daughter, Emma, and a young man were featured in the article. Today, I'm thrilled to share their progress. Emma graduated from Ole Miss and is pursuing her Doctorate in Physical Therapy at Bowling Green State University. Jack recently graduated with honors from the Air Force Academy and will begin his Master’s in Operations Research at North Carolina State University. #ProudParent #SuccessStories

I’ve been enjoying my journey into columnist for Animal Health News And Views. Without realizing it, Elmo's simple question of "How are you doing" timed perfectly for Mental Health month. So thank you Elmo!! Read how this question can impact veterinary medicine. https://lnkd.in/g-HwWi8n #mentalhealthmonth #howareyou #simplequestions #vetmed
