Summary

My passion for animals since I was little have drives me to always want to work in the veterinary field. I have worked in the vet clinic for 3 years and love what I do. I am pursuing to become a licensed vet tech and a dream I am hoping to accomplish is to become a veterinarian. I have worked with mostly small animals, assisted friends with goats and cows. I am a hard worker and driven to work with others to help our patients.
