Experienced veterinary assistant dedicated to exceptional animal care.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated veterinary assistant with a passion for animal care and a strong background in veterinary technology. My experience spans various roles, including assisting in medication administration, vaccinations, and treatments at Animal Kind, where I enhanced patient care and improved client relations. I take pride in my ability to manage inventory and train new staff, ensuring a smooth workflow in the clinic.
Currently, I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Veterinary Technology at St. Petersburg College while gaining hands-on experience through internships and per-diem positions. My internships at Veterinary Ophthalmology Services and Oakhurst Animal Hospital have equipped me with skills in emergency response, surgical assistance, and patient monitoring. I am committed to continuous learning and professional development in the veterinary field.
