Her experiences include volunteering in South Africa, where she cared for cheetahs and other native species. Amanda has worked in almost every role within a veterinary practice, including reception, kennel assistant, rehabilitation, and night work. After moving from first-opinion practice to referral, she rotated through various departments, gaining extensive knowledge of different disciplines. Amanda is deeply dedicated to her patients and strongly believes in a fear-free approach to care.

Outside of her professional life, Amanda was a national cheerleading champion and is a passionate rugby fan, proudly supporting Scotland.
