Summary

Dynamic and adaptable professional with experience, excelling in customer service and cash handling. Proven ability to enhance workflow efficiency and foster customer loyalty through effective communication and attention to detail. Committed to maintaining cleanliness and safety standards while delivering exceptional service in fast-paced environments. In my veterinary career, I spent two years in school traveling to veterinary clinics, seeing different animal sanctuaries, and rehabilitation centers to earn experience and the veterinary assistant certification. Along with my studies, I raised a market hog to show and sell in livestock shows for a period of six months. During those months, I had a slight taste of the livestock industry, and I can say it was one of the best experiences of my life because it jump-started my passion for livestock and my desire to become a large animal veterinarian.
