I have been in animal care/medicine for over 20 years. Passion is part of it but this shared journey on Earth is helping give a voice to those that don't have one. I went to school at Edison University for Wildlife Biology and Conservation and then attended Santa Fe College for Zoo Management and Husbandry as well as Veterinary Technician licensing. I have traveled and worked with some of the most majestic animals. As my journey evolved I eventually landed back in Texas working with Equine. I met my wife in 2005 and we started our own journey, having 3 boys. This pulled me back into small animal med where I have been caring for pets and clients since 2007.
