His goals are to continue his education especially in veterinary dentistry and someday work on a nice sunny Island with white sand beaches and calm waves.

Aubrey

Veterinary Technician

For Aubrey, her journey into veterinary medicine began with a deep desire to understand and protect the animals she loved. Growing up in Bayville, NJ, her family was full of animal lovers — her parents always had a home bustling with pets, and that love for creatures great and small became part of who she is. It was the loss of her childhood dog to heartworm disease that truly shaped her path. That experience ignited her determination to help pets live longer, healthier lives and inspired her to start working in veterinary care right after high school in 1994.

Aubrey began her path as an assistant at Lanoka Oaks Veterinary Center and, through years of hands-on training, grew into the skilled, compassionate veterinary technician she is today. From drawing blood and setting catheters to monitoring anesthesia and supporting clients through both joyful and difficult visits, she takes pride in every aspect of her work. Her favorite part of each day is being in the exam room — connecting with clients, answering their questions, and helping them understand how preventive care like vaccines and bloodwork can make a world of difference for their pets’ health.

At home, Aubrey’s life is just as full of animals and heart. She shares her life with her husband, Dean, and their son. She has a house full of reptiles, amphibians, and salt water fish and open for more pets in the future. When she’s not at the clinic, Aubrey loves spending time with her family at the beach or volunteering with a friend’s pug rescue. One of her most cherished memories is her 2008 wedding in the Bahamas — a joyful family gathering that remains especially meaningful to her even today.

For Aubrey, every day in veterinary medicine is a chance to honor the love and lessons that began long ago — one healthy, happy pet at a time.
