I have 4+ years experience in a veterinary setting, and am currently pursuing my CVT! Most of my experience has been in primary care, though I currently work in Emergency care. I love to work with all animals, but have a particular affinity towards cats. I often do self-funded cat rescue, providing care for cats that need it and helping them find homes. I currently have 5 cats, one of which we're managing Diabetes for, among other health issues. She's also aggressive at the vet, so I have professional and personal experience in handling spicy pets. I pride myself on my technical skills and client education. If I don't know the answer, I can point you to resources that do!
