Becky attended Moraine Park Technical College’s veterinary technology program before working in general practice for 7 years. She joined the internal medicine team at MVS in June 2016. She enjoys working in internal medicine because she’s able to help our clients and patients get answers for their ailments, as well as help to manager their diseases long term so they can live their best possible lives. She loves a good foreign body endoscopy that saves a pet from requiring surgery.
Becky and her husband live in DeForest with their Rat Terrier mix Zoey, Labrador Nova, a pony named Dylan, and a Thoroughbred named Reuben. In her free time, she enjoys camping, golfing, hunting, and most of all horseback riding.
