Certified Veterinary Technician
As a Certified Veterinary Technician who graduated from MSU, Ashley has been at Bavarian Veterinary Hospital since 2013.

When not at our hospital, Ashley enjoys spending time with her kids, gardening, baking, going up north to their cabin, helping at their family farm, and completing home projects/renovations. Allie, a cat, is their family pet.
