Heather was born in Chicago but moved to Arizona when she was seven. She’s been surrounded by animals her entire life, with a mother who is a wildlife rehabilitator and has kept horses and chickens around since moving to Arizona. She worked in veterinary hospitals since 2014 and has volunteered with AZ Humane Society on nearby reservations to provide veterinary services for those in need. Heather graduated from Penn Foster College in 2016 and has been a CVT ever since. She has been an Elite Fear Free Certified technician since 2019 and uses those skills to help clients and their pets to have the best possible experience while receiving veterinary services. A self-described “crazy cat lady,” she loves cats and helps with fostering kittens for a cat rescue in town. When she is not working, she loves to spend time with her cats and two small dogs; swimming, relaxing, reading, or learning more about veterinary medicine.
