Alicia is the Hospital Manager at Pleasanton Veterinary Hospital and a proud Bay Area native. She absolutely loves supporting the clients and patients in the Tri-Valley region and feels lucky to work in the lively city of Pleasanton! With a lifelong passion for animals and a heart full of dedication to their human families, Alicia is thrilled to be only the third hospital manager in California (and the twelfth in the entire country!) to earn her Fear Free Veterinary Certification. 

When she’s not managing the hospital, Alicia is living the USAF life as a proud military wife, raising two kids and sharing her home with two very charming rescue pets: Birdie, a six-year-old Lab/Wirehair Pointer, and Otis, a six-year-old terrier mix who’s got one of the most unique faces you’ll ever see. If you ask Alicia about Otis's breed, she’ll cheekily tell you he’s a “pure-bred good boy”!

In her downtime, Alicia and her family are always on the go, either traveling to places near water (the beach is calling!) or cheering on the San Diego Padres. She’s also a huge fan of true crime, loves to tackle DIY home projects with her husband, and can often be found in the kitchen baking her famous browned butter chocolate chip cookies—guaranteed to make you smile!
