Meet the Team March!

Erin Wiley is Mizzou VBMA’s VP of Operations and Communications for 2024.

She is from St. Louis, MO but has lived in Columbia for 10 years since starting undergrad at Mizzou in 2014. Erin sees herself in a small animal practice with the possibility of specializing in orthopedics.

Erin joined VBMA with the goals of expanding her knowledge of the business side of veterinary medicine and taking advantage of learning other aspects of this field besides the curriculum in veterinary school. She chose to become a VBMA officer for the networking benefits that correspond with playing a larger role in VBMA. Her favorite part of VBMA is the variety of speakers that come from many different backgrounds.

One fun fact about Erin is that she is a twin!

Watch your email for meeting reminders from Erin!
