Hi there! My name is Madeline, I'm 27 years old, and I have just recently moved back to the Chicago-land area after completing my Ph.D. in Chemistry. I'm taking several months off to unwind and relax before diving into a full time career in the sciences and, in the meantime, I am looking for both temporary and on-going job opportunities in animal care services where I can apply my years of hands-on experience in professionally communicating with people and caring for a variety of animals to benefit you and your pets to the best of abilities. In my life, I have owned 7 cats, 5 dogs, and 4 horses. I spent my childhood and teenage years living on a farm for three months out of the year. I love animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages!
