Hi there! My name is Jamie and I'm from Arizona. I graduated from Arizona State in 2023 with my Bachelor's in Biology and moved here to OSU to start vet school! I'm a current 1st year vet student, prior to which I worked as a veterinary assistant for over 3 years working with dogs and cats. I had been dog sitting for friends and family for many years. In Arizona, I had a wide range of cool experience with different animals. I worked with zoo animals and helped rehabilitate wild birds at a wildlife rehab center. I also helped with some cool shark research during my undergrad...yep, shark research in the middle of the desert. I have a pit back home in Arizona, Hershey, who I love and miss dearly. I've had her since I was 9 and she's the reason why I started my journey in veterinary medicine. I moved here to start vet school with my calico kitty, Chai, who I adopted at the beginning of my vet med journey. She is my pride and joy, even though she's a sassy girl! Trust me, I understand how nerve wracking it can be to find the perfect caretaker for your baby. I am also very familiar with the anxiety it holds when you're away from them. That's why I'm more than happy to work with you to provide the best care for your furry little loved one!
