The Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) has recently welcomed many new faculty members to our academic departments, each one bringing a unique set of skills and experience that enriches our college every day. In this Q&A series, you'll get to know their interests, expertise and more.

This Q&A features Alyssa Chandler, D.V.M. ’14, assistant clinical professor in the Section of Small Animal Medicine.

What has been your path leading up to Cornell?

I completed veterinary school at Cornell, followed by a rotating internship at North Carolina State University. I was fortunate to come back to Cornell for my residency in internal medicine, and then spent a few years in private practice prior to joining the clinical faculty at Cornell.

What drew you to CVM?

Cornell has always felt like home to me, and it is where I discovered my love of teaching. The opportunity to participate in training future veterinarians and veterinary specialists is really a dream.
