I earned my degree in Veterinary Technology from Argosy University in 2011. After that, I trained in a small animal clinic, spent time as a support specialist helping dog and cat parents navigate hospice and end-of-life decisions for their precious pets, and currently work for an animal welfare non-profit. In addition, I have been a volunteer for many local animal organizations, including The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of MN, The Raptor Center, Secondhand Hounds, and others.
