Brian moved to Gardnerville, NV to become a partner in Great Basin Equine in April 1999. A big move because both he and wife Holly were born and raised in Montana, and were firmly grounded in the area. Brian did his undergraduate work at Montana State University in Bozeman. He attended Colorado State University School of Veterinary Medicine, receiving his DVM in 1994. Following graduation, he became an associate veterinarian with All West Veterinary Hospital in Bozeman, Montana. It was there where he forged an association with Dr. Marty Gardner, also employed at All West. This laid the foundation for their partnership.Brian and wife Holly stay busy with their young children Cole and Casey. He enjoys spending time with his family and coaching local youth baseball, softball, and basketball.
