OUR TEAM
Hung Vu
Doctor of Veterinary Medicine
I was raised in Northern Virginia and earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Virginia before going on to complete veterinary school at Virginia Tech. My professional interests include behavior and urgent care.
As a Fear Free certified veterinarian, I’m committed to creating a calm, comfortable, and low-stress experience for every patient who walks through our doors.
Outside of the clinic, I enjoy trivia and collecting interesting (and sometimes useless) facts. I especially love spending time with my wife and fellow veterinarian, Dr. Katherine Amos, and our toddler son. I’m often described as the class clown, and I enjoy bringing a lighthearted energy that keeps both clients and team members smiling.

Hi I’m Ahnasia! I’m a Licensed Veterinary Technician and I volunteer some of my free time assisting in a local cat rescue as well. In my downtime I love all things horror and scary, playing a good video game, gyming and snuggles with my cats!
I have 3 animals in total: Jujun, Avarice (cats) and of course Gaara (ball python). I know plenty of cat and snake fun facts so feel free to ask for one when you see me :)

I have been an LVT since April of 2024! I have been in veterinary medicine since 2020, starting in general practice, and after three years, I decided to move to emergency and urgent care. I love how each case brings something different and continues to help me learn and grow as a technician.
My husband and I have a 7-month-old at home along with 2 dogs, a German shepherd mix and a golden retriever, and 2 cats. When I’m not working, I enjoy staying active and spending quality time with my family. We enjoy being outdoors, whether it’s hiking, exploring new places, or simply throwing the ball around with our dogs.
I am excited to be part of the Nexus family and look forward to seeing this place continue to grow and thrive.

Mattie
I’ve been a proud member of our sister location, Hilltop Veterinary Clinic, since 2019. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Science from Old Dominion University in 2023, and I’ve had a passion for working with animals my entire life.
One of the most rewarding parts of my career is mentoring veterinary professionals and helping create a culture built on compassion, collaboration, and growth. I also love connecting with pet owners and sharing in the joy of the human-animal bond, because I truly understand how important pets are to our lives and families.
Outside of work, I enjoy crocheting, knitting, and ceramics in my free time.
