Summary
I’ve been a practicing veterinary technician since I graduated from vocational school in June of 2001. I’ve volunteered at veterinary hospitals since I was 16 years old and have worked with many different species of animals. My love for animals and my passion for their care and protection derives from growing up on a ranch and helping my grandmother help rescue hurt and abandoned animals. It was then that I recognized what my purpose in life would be and have loved every minute of it. I would be an asset to your company because I have allot of experience in many different areas and am a team player that strives for success in any endeavor. I’ve also been a pet sitter since I was a teenager as well. I’ve cared for many different animals and have many repeat clients.
