In Their Own Words |

Why do you love your job?I love that I get to be part of a place that is here to help the community. Whether I am able to help a pet owner or an animal that comes through our clinic, I feel incredibly grateful and honored to work in a place with a purpose. |
|
Pets at home:I have two cats, both 7 years old. Xenon is a fiery tortoiseshell, and Pluto is my sweet, loveable black cat. I also have a 3-year-old Miniature Schnauzer, Vana. She goes everywhere with me. |
|
What brought you to the profession?I have always loved animals and interacting with people. Working at a vet clinic is the best of both worlds. I could not imagine it any other way now. |

Hobbies outside of work:
I like being with my friends and family, hosting game nights, and diving into a new TV show! |
|
Favorite book/TV show:
My all-time favorite TV show is Gilmore Girls. |
