Ashlee joined the EAMC team in 2023 to help with our busy reception area and phones. After some extensive time studying and travelling and living abroad, Ashlee found herself exactly where her five year old self always hoped she’d be: working in a vet clinic. Ashlee loves spending her time taking care of her silly dogs, Koda the Bull Arab X and Shiloh the English Cocker Spaniel and her two cats, Mew and Mushy. When she is not sneaking in as many pats as she can at reception, Ashlee enjoys spending her spare time playing video games, reading, photographing anything she can and drawing.
