Embarking on a heartfelt journey in the veterinary field, I am currently enveloping myself in the foundational knowledge provided by the Veterinary Nurse Certificate program through distance learning at Otago Polytechnic. My educational journey will persevere through 2024, where I'll delve deeper into my studies pursuing the New Zealand Diploma in Veterinary Nursing.

My professional journey began at the clinic in 2021, where I served as a nurse assistant and gradually imprinted my passion for providing meticulous care to our adorable patients. Shortly after my initiation into the clinic, I embraced the chance to tread the path of learning, thereby inching closer to my childhood dream of becoming a vet nurse.

A paw-parent myself, I have a vivacious 13-year-old Maltese, Buster, who never fails to embrace his inner puppy especially when the word "walkies" is in play. Every fur baby that steps paw into our clinic receives a piece of my heart, ensuring their stay is as serene and comfortable as possible.

When not enveloped in my nursing duties or engrossed in studies, you'll find me basking in the company of family and friends, often accompanied by our furry companions. Be it basking under the sun at the beach, unwinding beside the tranquil lakes, or gracefully gliding down snowy slopes in winter, I weave my love for nature into my leisure.

Should our paths cross around the clinic, please don’t hesitate to initiate a conversation or pepper me with questions. I'm ever-eager to apply my knowledge and am delighted by every opportunity to learn and grow.
