I have been a certified veterinary technician for more than 30 years working in a mixed animal practice that also sees exotics and injured wildlife and a regional 24 hour emergency clinic. Along with my time as a technician, I have also been the HR manager and in charge of external and shadows for many years at a 26 doctor practice.
I have a BS in Organizational Leadership, a MEd from Colorado State University and a Master of Veterinary Education (MVEd) from Lincoln Memorial University’s School of Veterinary Medicine.
I have been teaching at a local colleges in veterinary assistant programs. I taught a variety of Veterinary Science programs for grades 3-5, 6-8, and high school. I currently teach in an equine studies program at a local private university.
Along with all that I am also a homeschool mom! At home, my family has 2 mini horses, a Paint horse, 4 Nigerian dwarf goats, 9 chickens and 4 cats! I am passionate about sharing my experience and love for animals and veterinary medicine with others!
