Gina grew up in a small town in northwest Missouri, on a farm that had beef cattle and row crops. She attended Northwest Missouri State University for her undergraduate degree and then graduated from the University of Missouri with her DVM. As a student, she spent time at Valley Vets and fell in love with the rural atmosphere of the valley and the vast agriculture it contains. Upon graduation, she returned home to work in a mixed animal practice that had an emphasis on cattle.
Gina grew up helping her dad AI their beef herd, and fell in love with genetics and the study of bovine reproduction. That opened her up to exploring and enjoying the world of embryo transfer. She and her husband Brad are very excited to get to know the community and the area.
