Summary

I have been passionate about animals since i can remember, from the first time I

was asked what I wanted to be when I grew up I was telling everyone I was going to

be a vet. That passion hasn't lessened with the years, I am more dedicated to

working in the field of animal care then ever.

I am very motivated to learn more all the time and am very excited to participate in

a clinic environment, and be a part of a team that can help me continue my learning

of animal sciences and health care.

I have been lucky enough to gain about 5 years of combined experience between

volunteer and work at shelters, boarding facilities, vet offices, and sanctuaries, and

now I'm ready to become a trusted asset to your clinic.
