After growing up on Alaska's Kenai Peninsula, Annamaria and her family call Anchorage home. Her four-legged family includes Willow, a senior lab mix, Maple, a young 15 breed mix from Western Alaska, and hamsters Panda Bear and Saber Tooth. Beginning in Veterinary Medicine in 2008, she joined the Hillside Pet Clinic team in 2025 where she is excited to work with pet parents, our canine and feline patients, and learn more about the avian and exotic species we treat. Outside of work, you can find her active with her son's Cub Scout events, and her family's car clubs. She enjoys cooking and baking, sewing, and glamping in her vintage VWs.
