Tessa graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2013 and commenced an 18 month internship at Scone Equine Hospital in Australia. This was followed by three years in ambulatory equine practice in Sussex, where she developed an interest in all areas of equine practice, especially stud medicine and artificial insemination.
Tessa returned to Scone in 2018 for the busy thoroughbred stud season, coming home to the UK to work on the stud team at Newmarket Equine Hospital in 2019 & completing a stud season in the Cotswolds in 2020 before joining B&W Equine Vets.
