She completed her rotating internship at VCA SouthPaws, in Fairfax VA, and will continue onto her cardiology residency with CVCA in the same location.

Leah is originally from North Carolina but has enjoyed living in the Northern Virginia area and exploring all it has to offer alongside her fiancee and their dog. In her spare time she enjoys spending time outdoors, traveling with family and friends but also loves the little pleasures of enjoying a cup of coffee and nice book or watching the Great British Baking Show.
