Summary

I have a degree in Veterinary Medicine for 15 years, with experience in caring for small animals and wild animals.

Because I don't graduate in the United States, I'm looking for a job as a Veterinary Assistant and I'm willing to help veterinarians if necessary.

Unfortunately I still speak and understand little of English, but I am taking a course to improve myself and be able to grow in the profession.
