Summary

I not only enjoy helping clients in my community but also make sure to put them first and resolve any issues they have. I strive to make sure all my clients are feeling better than when they walked in.

I am also a animal lover who strives to make a difference in my community. I am currently in school to become a Veterinary Technician. My goal in life is to be a Veterinarian and open my own practice with a rescue so that I can help all animals in need including my own.
