Summary
I was born in and spent most of my childhood in Lincoln, Nebraska. Moved to Omaha, Nebraska after graduating high school. Began my career as a young adult working with elderly patients and as much as I enjoyed the work I was drawn towards working with animals. I have four cats, one biological son, 4 step-children and one foster child with hopes to someday soon have a pup to call my own. I am very excited to begin my grooming journey.
