Becca is a native of Portland and enjoys camping, hiking and backpacking with her family.

Recently, she has begun training for triathlons!

Becca has a special love for pets.  She volunteered at the Oregon Humane Society since she was 12 years old.

Later, she worked there for five years.  She has also worked for two different veterinary offices.

Becca completed the Pre-Veterinary Medicine program at PSU, but decided that biomedicine was not where her passions lied.

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine were the modes of healing that she wanted to use to help pets (and people!) become their healthiest.

Becca feels very fortunate to be able to treat ALL members of the family!
