Hello! I am a native of the North East Kingdom. I started out my animal loving career when I was just a small child. I enjoyed playing on the farm with all my cousins. I captured snakes, frogs, mice, and anything else I could get my hands on to “save” them. I continued my life calling my attending Vermont Technical College to become a Veterinary Technician. I started working for Dr. Henderson in May 2011. In 2014 I became a Credentialed Technician! I have a dog (Trixie), a turtle (Graceful), and a parakeet (Skittles). I love doing ANYTHING outside, fishing, hiking, and snowshoeing with my daughter Miss Peighton and Trixie the dog.
