Welcome Michelle

Veterinary Administration

Michelle lives in Camperdown with her partner and a multitude of pets. She completed her Veterinary Nursing qualification in 1988, working across several practices in and around Melbourne, before moving to Geelong in 2002.

Michelle has a certificate in Horse Husbandry, which was a great addition to her “tool Box” of skills.
More recently, Michelle worked in the “Human” hospital system in Geelong for ten year as a Ward Clerk in the Day Surgery and Cardiac units.

After moving to Camperdown she knew she wanted to resume working with her first love, horses.
Michelle got her first pony at age 5, attending pony club and numerous shows across the years.
She has worked as a dressage and polo groom, and currently enjoys showing her Shetland ponies Fergus and Angus.

Most weekends Michelle is either trail riding her Standardbred, Jasper, or showing and working her ponies. When not doing horsey things Michelle enjoys gardening, dirt bike riding and the outdoors in general.
