Summary

I have been working with animals since I was fourteen years old shadowing a Veterinarian at a local clinic. I was learning how to work with animals especially in areas such as canine rehabilitation, diagnostic medicine, and preventative care. I continued my studies working at a local animal sanctuary that housed exotic animals such as emus, peacocks, and a variety of farm animals such as pigs, cows, horses, donkeys, sheep, goats, and alpacas. After obtaining my bachelors degree in animal science, I continued my educational studies at Ross University of Veterinary Medicine where I will be completing my education in January of 2024.
