Summary
A passionate and dedicated 23 year-old with a strong calling for animal care. Holding a Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing, I possess valuable practical experience from a renowned equine clinic. While I've broadened my skills in other fields, my true passion lies in providing compassionate and high quality care to animals. I am eager to return to my veterinary nursing roots and contribute to a team dedicated to animal well-being.
