Linda graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the US in 2014. She has always been interested in non-traditional species and worked as a volunteer and student manager of a wildlife clinic during her vet school years. Upon graduation, Linda has focused her career on avian and exotic pet medicine though she does enjoy seeing dogs and cats.

In November 2022, Linda made the leap across the world from her hometown of Chicago and joined our team.

Linda and her husband have been enjoying exploring the various hiking trails and beaches around Auckland, (and eventually the rest of NZ!) as well as observing the unique wildlife found only in this part of the world. If she’s not out exploring NZ you’ll probably find her outside in the garden or cozy inside putting puzzles together.
