Kayla, a proud Penn Foster graduate of 2023, stands at the intersection of dedication and expertise in the realm of animal care. Hailing from the heartland of Illinois, her journey in the field of veterinary science is marked by a profound love for creatures of all shapes and sizes.

At home, Kayla shares her space with an incredible menagerie of beloved companions. Sailor and Rex, the two feline members of her family, share their domain with Dot and Cubone, her playful Ball Pythons. The family extends further to include Arrow and Blaster, the Columbian Red Tail Boas, and Bowser, the endearing Bearded Dragon. Not to forget Owen, Blue, and Echo, her trio of Crested Geckos. Rounding out the bunch are Lionel, the Staffordshire Terrier, and Kodiak, the spirited Husky, who add their own vibrant energy to Kayla's world.

Beyond her professional endeavors, Kayla finds solace and joy in various hobbies. She immerses herself in the tranquility of nature through hiking, captures moments through the lens of her camera in photography, delves into new worlds through reading, and cherishes quality time spent with her girls, Lila and Keira.
