Personal Hobbies and Interests
Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family and our animals. As a family we have horses, dogs, and cats!
Favorite Part of My Job
My favorite part of my job is patient car. I love being able to see the patients get better and see them go home healthy! One thing I enjoy most is the recovery process of the patients and seeing coworkers learn and grow in their position!
Why I Chose This Profession
My love for animals and being outdoors is the reason I decided to pursue this profession. I've always known that I wanted to work with animals and when the opportunity came up I couldn't pass it down!
Work History
When I was in High School, I started volunteering at Camp Red Cedar. If you don't know what that is, It is a camp that specializes in recreational therapy, equine assisted learning, and summer camps! There, I was just a barn hand, so I got to turn the horses in and out, cleaned stalls, helped with recreational therapy lessons, everyday horse and barn care, and I helped with summer camps!
