I am inspired by fellow veterinarians and vet students who want to contribute, support, and move this profession in a new direction. Mentorship is important to me and I want to help people connect with one another.

Growing up Dr. Crocker was always passionate about horses and was inspired to become a veterinarian. Prior to veterinary school she competed on the Texas A&M Equestrian Team, did an internship at the Four Sixes Ranch in Guthrie, TX, and served on multiple committees and associations in the horse industry.

She met and married her husband Shane Crocker at the start of veterinary school. Thirteen years later they have lived in 7 houses, had 2 children, and continue to laugh and love together. Shane is an entrepreneur and invests in multiple businesses. They enjoy traveling and exploring the world and cannot wait to include their kids on those adventures.
