I didn't know that I wanted to pursue a career with animals until I got a job as a kennel assistant in my home town. While I was there, I had an opportunity to shadow a veterinary technician. I immediately knew that this is what I wanted to do. Since then, I have worked at 4 different clinics, one of them being an emergency clinic in the area.  Outside of work, I have two cats, Bitsy and Ember, and as many house plants as I can fit in my home. You can also find me playing video games and cross stitching.
