Tracie joined VCA in 1995 as a Veterinary Assistant before moving into a Technician Supervisor role, and ultimately a Hospital Manager role at VCA Forestville. She was drawn to the veterinary field due to her love of caring for both pets and their families, and she is dedicated to helping foster the human-animal bond. In her time with VCA, she has worked both in General Practice as well as Emergency & Specialty hospitals and has developed a well-rounded set of skills that she passes on to her team members.

While Tracie is originally from Illinois, California is her home. In her free time she enjoys reading, walking, rock and shell hunting on the beach, birdwatching, and spending time with her family – her husband, son, a Labrador named Corduroy, and various fish!
