Britteny Kyle, DVM, MSc

Kyle graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in 2009. Upon graduation she entered small animal practice in Toronto, where she worked as an associate for several years before switching her focus to honeybee medicine. She was elected to the board of the Honey Bee Veterinary Consortium in 2019 and served as president of the organization in 2020. Her projects for the consortium have included chairing the annual conference and developing a certification program for veterinarians interested in working with honeybees. In the fall of 2020, she returned to Ontario Veterinary College to earn her master’s degree in epidemiology with a focus on American foulbrood. In 2021, she began her doctoral degree in epidemiology with a collaborative specialization in One Health to continue studying American foulbrood in honeybee populations. When she is not studying bees, Kyle is busy maintaining her small zoo of 3 boys, 2 cats, 1 dog, and a handful of honeybee colonies.
