Summary
I have always had a passion helping animals growing up and I have always had a pet growing up, that is how I discovered I wanted to work with animals. During in high school, I was attending college to earn my general credits for a program for vet technicians. after high school I did take a break from college and began working for an elementary school that I work for until now. It was recent when I decided to take my education beyond a high school diploma and complete my dream becoming a vet technician.
