Where did you grow up?
I grew up in Fremont California.
What do you do for fun when you're not working?
Some of the things I like to do for fun when I'm not working include cooking for the people I love or spending time outdoors either hiking or at the beach. I also like trying new restaurants with my partner. And of course, spending time with my pets.
Do you have any pets of your own?
I have a 15-year-old Chihuahua (almost 16) named Benny who is the entire reason behind my love for Chihuahuas. I have a cat named Honey who is the reason behind my obsession for orange and white tabbys. I also have a cat named Toby who is the craziest and most outgoing orange boy. I also recently adopted a puppy named Benji who is a terrier mix and couldn't be any more perfect.
When did you decide you wanted to be part of the veterinary field?
I decided I wanted to be part of the veterinary field when I adopted my first cat, Honey, back in 2020. He became my pride and joy and best friend. I wanted to spread that love with other pets as well.
