Kate does not have previous eye experience and was lucky enough to learn everything she knows about ocular disease on the job. at Heartland! She earned an Associates Degree as a Veterinary Technician and worked in a vet clinic for 4 years before becoming a stay-at-home mom for another 4 years. Now, she takes a particular interest in dry eye syndrome and our various treatments to increase patient comfort.
Kate says, “I love the opportunity to work closely with our patients and doctors to increase the quality of life through comfort and vision, and maybe even spark a laugh or two.”
When Kate is not at work, she can be found on a stage or running sound and lights for a local community theater. She lives in Dundee with her two children, Oliver and Elodie, and Agatha the Black Cat.
