Nicole is a member of our veterinary technician team and has been with the Animal Hospital of Signal Mountain since September of 1995. Nicole is also a referral coordinator and in charge of inventory management at AHSM. Nicole holds a B.F.A. from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and has 26 years of experience in veterinary medicine. Nicole resides with her husband and a menagerie of furry critters. Her fur family includes beloved cats Vinny, Screech, and Poppy, a “always ready to explore terrier” Olive, and 2 Sicilian donkeys Luca and Bella. Since her greatest creations, her two sons, Christian and Ethan are now grown; Nicole has a renewed passion for art. Specifically in clay art.  Her favorite part of working at AHSM is “cat whispering” our feline friends and trying to make their visits with us tolerable with lots of undersatanding and Churu Treats.
