Nicole

Nicole is a true ray of sunshine—an exceptionally dedicated, detail-oriented Registered Veterinary Technician who has wanted to work with animals for as long as she can remember. She turned that passion into a career by earning her degree from Columbus State, and she has since gained a wide range of experience in small-animal general practice. In 2022, she was thrilled to help launch Muirfield Animal Hospital alongside Dr. Muriel Leas.

Born and raised in Lancaster, Ohio, Nicole now lives in Delaware with her husband and the bestest boy ever, Baron the Golden Retriever. Their sons, Dylan and Joshua, are grown and doing great things in their lives — and Mom and Dad couldn’t be prouder!

Nicole has a genuine love for learning and stays curious about all things veterinary medicine—from new treatments and alternative therapies to surgical assisting skills. She is incredibly patient, endlessly knowledgeable, and always eager to share that knowledge with pet parents to ensure they feel confident and informed about their fur babies’ care.

Highly organized and a natural mentor, Nicole is a steady source of support for younger technicians. She loves connecting with the team and pet parents in a positive, caring, and uplifting environment—something she has worked hard to help build and maintain at Muirfield Animal Hospital.

When she’s not at the clinic, you’ll find Nicole gardening, decorating for the holidays, or browsing her favorite boutique shops.

Fun fact: Nicole brings entrepreneurial spirit to the team—she and her husband previously owned a successful business together.
