Jeff also found his calling late in life, but better late than never! He joined the team as an Intern in February of 2016 as one of his requirements at the only in class veterinary technician program in the state. Jeff graduated the veterinary technician program Summa Cum Laude with a 4.0 G.P.A. and then set his sights on passing his board exams. Soon after passing his national credentialing examination, it was clear that he was meant to be a part of this family and in October of 2016 Jeff officially joined the team as a Registered Veterinary Technician. Jeff has a passion for emergency veterinary medicine and for veterinary anesthesia. He is currently in pursuit of advanced specialization and certification as a Veterinary Technician Specialist in Anesthesia and Analgesia. Jeff currently works in General Practice, Emergency, and Specialty hospitals.

"From a very early age, I have always had a love for animals. My dad and I loved watching animal shows on public television like Wild, Wild, World of Animals narrated by William Conrad and Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom narrated by Marlin Perkins. Many winters I would round up a few of my most adventurous friends and journey to the local pond. Here we would dig thru the ice and free trapped carp. They had somehow created an ice-free area to swim in and needed to be saved. Thank goodness we didn't need to be saved from falling thru the ice!!"
