Tasha Greenfield
Tasha is a native Tucsonan, she was born and raised here. She had her sights on being a basketball coach, but her love for animals took over and in her mid-twenties she decided she wanted to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. She went to school for veterinary assistant and quickly found her passion working with animals. Tasha has been in the field since 2010 and really enjoys the connection that you get with the clients and their fur-babies. In her spare time she enjoys following college basketball, Duke being her favorite. She also enjoys going to the U of A women’s basketball games with her wife of five years. Tasha and her wife share their home with multiple fur-babies; dogs, cats, and tortoises. Tasha also loves getting out and enjoying the amazing Tucson “winters” and hanging out with her niece and nephews. Tasha has found a home here at Speedway Veterinary, and is thankful to have such great co-workers.
Sam LeFevre
Born in a small rural town in NY, my love of animals began almost the moment I was born. I always knew I wanted to make my life’s work making animals lives better. A few years ago I was finally able to bring that dream into fruition. I was very blessed to find and be accepted with Dr. Boyer and her staff. A place that allowed and encouraged me to learn and grow on this journey. Making this journey with me is my husband of 33 years and my beautiful teenage daughter, along with 8 cats and 2 dogs. I have truly been rewarded with this life of mine.
Amy Lopez
Hailing from the mountains of north Georgia, Amy has been in the veterinary field since 2014. Since a young age, she knew she wanted to work with animals in some capacity and finally got the chance when she decided to change scenery and move to Tucson, AZ.
When not practicing vet med, Amy can be found reading, playing video games, or gardening. She enjoys art, music, studying ancient civilizations, and the paranormal.
She lives happily with her 2 cats, 2 ferrets, multiple snakes and lizards, mod-podge of fish, and tarantulas.
Amy is happy to join the Speedway Veterinary team and add her skills to their already fantastic crew.
Nikayta Nelson
Born in North Carolina, but raised majority of my life here in Tucson, I have always had the passion of helping the needs of animals since I was 10 years of age. I have been in the Veterinary since 2020, and I’m always looking forward to learning new things. Being a part of the reason why an animal is able to have a long fulfilling life makes every challenge in the veterinary field worth it! I enjoy going to the park and spending time with my pit bull Russell and spicy chihuahua Prince. Hobbies that I enjoy are hiking, playing sports with my family, and playing video games. I am so happy and excited to start my new journey here at speedway with this amazing team!
Marta Solano-Soler
Hello I am from Spain; I am sure you could tell by my accent. I took a vacation to Los Angeles in 2010 and that is where I met my future husband. I moved to the US in 2011 and we were married 3 months later. We have 2 beautiful boys, 3 golden retrievers named Colbie Bear (who is my heart dog), Mr. Wilson and Dakota, a quaker parrot named Quack-Quack, lovebirds and like ten chickens...my husband says it is 40 something but he is still new to chicken math. I can say, there has not been a day in my life I did not own a pet. I was obsessed with animals, especially horses and when I was growing up. I have Been in the vet field for almost 3 years now, where I have found my passion. I enjoy customer service and animals, so this was the perfect combination for me.
I’m Charley, Emilio’s annoying little sister
I was brought in with 2 of my siblings in the spring of 2017 when I was 1 week old. Malnourished, cold and a small chance of survival, Dr. Boyer and her staff were able to nurse me back to health. Unfortunately my siblings did not make it. Everyone here calls me a troll as I like to hide on top or behind things and glare judgingly at everyone, but isn’t that what I am supposed to do as a cat? It has taken me awhile to come out of my shell, but I am slowly becoming more brave and may one day even visit with the people who come through the door, until then I’ll leave the greeting and treat stealing to my older brother and let him get in trouble for it!
