My love for animals goes back to when I was little and was inspired by my sister to be in the Veterinary Field. I always had a house full of pets (kitties mainly ;D ) and always used to practice taking care of them. In high school, I was able to locate a local shelter and devote some of my time helping out there. Once I discovered Mercy College's Veterinary Technology Program, I knew it was something I wanted to pursue. I am so glad I did, as I learned and am still learning so much about helping out all my furry family and friends. I can't wait to continue to learn and grow.
