Cassidy Rives

Animal Caretaker
Louisville,KY

Summary

I spent early years in the city of Louisville. When I was 13 my mother and I moved to a farm in Oldham County. There we worked outside with plants and animals constantly.

Caring for such things taught me how to be observant. Which I now use in everyday life to maneuver through my jobs working in animal care. I have been able to build such great relationships over the years. That I attribute to my time on the farm.
