Debbie grew up in the Menominee area and graduated from Menominee High School. She originally started working at Bayshore Vet Clinic 44 years ago as a receptionist.

Throughout the years Debbie has developed her skills through on the job training. Debbie is now our lead surgery technician and assists in all surgeries. Debbie is also in charge of managing our clinic inventory and ordering medications and supplies.
As a vet tech Debbie has numerous roles during the work day. In the morning she helps the doctor admit patients and prepare them for surgery. After assisting the doctor in surgery she helps recover the patient and make sure they are stable. During the rest of the day she is busy taking patient histories, restraining animals, administering medications, and helping to take radiographs. She has a special interest in patient nutrition and reproductive medicine.
