Dr. O'Donnell earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2025 through the Washington-Idaho-Montana-Utah (WIMU) Regional Program, completing her veterinary education through Washington State University. Following graduation, she completed a rotating small animal internship at MSPCA–Angell Animal Medical Center, where she trained alongside specialists in a wide range of disciplines, including surgery, internal medicine specialities, and emergency critical care medicine.
