Summary

I've been working in retail with three years of experience in sales. It has been such an enjoyable experience meeting new people and building salesmanship experience. As grateful as I am for that period of my life. I want to expand my horizons and get out of my comfort zone. Growing up I was always involved with animals. Whether it was playing with our dogs, playing with the neighbor's cats, taking in pet chameleons we found in our backyard, or nursing an abandoned baby bird. I recently got a fur baby of my own and she's made my life change for the better by giving me motivation to do what I really want to do, which is helping animals. Also, life with her has given me a chance to see the true responsibilities as a pet owner. What goes on behind the scenes, the good and the bad. Nerveless, I wouldn't have it any other way, she's my whole world. Sometime in the near future, I plan on furthering my education with Penn Foster to complete the veterinary technician program and pass the VTNE. I am optimistic for what's to come in the future. I am really excited for my new journey! I can't wait to pursue a career in the animal field and take on such meaningful purpose.
