Dr. Jonas was born in Wisconsin and moved to the Fox Valley when she was in elementary school. Growing up, she knew she wanted to be a veterinarian and spent a lot of time at Great Lakes shadowing while in high school. She attended University of Northwestern St. Paul for her undergrad and University of Wisconsin School of Veterinary Medicine for her DVM degree. 

After graduating, she moved to St. Louis to practice small animal emergency medicine. While she thoroughly enjoys emergency medicine, she is excited to transition to a general practice. 

During her off time, she enjoys being active and being outdoors, including hiking and water skiing. She has one pet, a golden doodle named Beemer.
