Lindsey, Certified Veterinary Technician, Practice Manager

I grew up in Lebanon county and initially graduated from Millersville University in 2008 with a Marine Biology/Psychology degree.  I was a zookeeper for over five years working with animals from tortoises to sea lions in various zoos in the country (Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Alabama).

I wanted to move back to the area and since there are very few sea lions in this area, I decided to switch gears and change to the veterinary field.  I went back to school with San Juan College to complete my Veterinary Technology degree to become a certified vet tech.  I live in Schaefferstown with my husband (Brandon), sons (Flynn & Arlo) and a small zoo of our own.  We have four dogs, one cat, sulcata tortoises named Barnaby Jones and Max, geckos, snakes, and over a dozen chickens!

I have been a veterinary technician since 1996 with a wide array of veterinary medicine over the years with my passion being surgery.  I have since hung up my tech scrubs and joined the Annville Cleona team in 2021 to focus on patient and customer care.  I have done some fostering in the past and happily failed every time!  I live with my husband, Shannon, and we have four boys, Eathan, Nolan, Landon, and Christopher, two dogs, Reagan and Madison, along with foster fail cats, Dottie and Shep.  In my spare time I enjoy quiet days with family and friends, a good binge worthy series or some retail therapy.

Emily, Veterinary Assistant

Becoming a veterinary technician was my dream job during elementary school. As it tends to happen, though, I drifted from that dream and graduated from Shippensburg University with a degree in computer science. After working in the industry for 5 years, COVID-19 hit and made me re-evaluate my career and passions. I decided to go back to school for what really matters to me. I am currently working towards becoming a certified veterinary technician through the online program with San Juan College. I love the choice I've made and the people I work with! I live in Lebanon with my husband and two cats who sometimes like each other, and my free time is spent with video games, board games, and pottery.

I grew up in Lebanon county, graduating high school from Palmyra.  I have always had a love for animals and have been working in the veterinary field for the last six years.  I started undergraduate in 2017 at Penn State University as a veterinary and biomedical science major.  I then drifted away from that interest, to then have an interest in pediatric medicine.  After a semester of nursing school I realized that even though I love babies and little kids, my passion is and always will be with animal medicine.  I have three dogs, Hugo, Franklin, and Grigio. We love to do off season beach trips and walk hiking trails together!

We have an 11 year old lady kitty, Lindsey Storm, who was about to be surrendered to a shelter this May. We are active in our church here and I'm thrilled to have found a healthy, encouraging and wonderful home here at A-C Veterinary Associates where I plan to be for the remainder of my career!

I have always had a passion for animal safety and welfare since I was young. I have a Master's degree from Bloomsburg University in Speech Language Pathology.

I share my home in Lebanon with my "kids" (or cats) Taco, Ramen, and Pepper. Hiking, reading, traveling yoga and camping are my jam! Soon I will be working towards becoming a CVT once I find the right program for me.

When I am not spending time at the barn I enjoy spending time with my family and friends or camping and traveling.
