When not at work, Gina loves doing live theater, hanging with family and watching comedies, especially with Melissa McCarthy. Gina is a huge Ohio State Buckeye fan! Go Bucks!

Kelsey

Office Manager/Lead Receptionist

Kelsey has been with NEAC almost 7 years and is the face of the clinic! When not working, which is a rarity, Kelsey enjoys traveling, reading, crafts, photography and taking in a good Renaissance faire when possible. She also has recently taken up plant husbandry, and loves Dr. Pepper and most Asian foods! Kelsey says her favorite thing about working at the clinic is getting to love on the puppies and kittens, as well as the giant breeds who think they are the size of a puppy.

Kimberly

Receptionist/Technician

Kimberly has been at NEAC on and off over the last 16 years. A self proclaimed cat lady, Kimberly is oftentimes either pet sitting or helping Kershaw County Humane Society. In her spare time, she spends time with her family especially at state parks. Her goal is to hit all state parks (47) and so far she has been to 12.

Declan

Kennel Staff

Declan has been with NEAC for about 9 months, working in our kennels taking care of the pets who board. In his spare time, Declan enjoys outdoor activities including, hiking, camping, and kayaking. He also enjoys road trips, building lego sets, hanging out with his dog Luna, and video games.

Leigh

Lead Veterinary Assistant/Technician

Leigh is a newbie to NEAC but not to the Veterinary world. Leigh has over 20 years experience and is the resident Chihuahua whisperer. In her spare time, Leigh loves gardening and zumba. Her favorite movie is A League of Their Own and she doesn’t have a favorite color so she proclaims rainbows to be the best of all colors!

Jackson

Kennel Staff

Jackson is the newest face of NEAC but you might never see him because he works in the kennels attending to all the animal needs. Jackson has a 4.7 GPA, is a straight A student and wants to attend MIT to become a Biomedical Engineer! When not at school or work, Jackson loves to game with his favorite game being “Overwatch”. Jackson loves food and his favorite is Chicken taco salad but he politely asks to have the guacamole left off! Someday Jackson hopes to own a Pug because it is his favorite dog breed.
