A little about me, I graduated from Purdue Northwest in 2014 with a degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management.  The pandemic gave me the extra push to make a career change and follow my true passion, caring for animals.  I am in the Veterinary Nursing program at Purdue University and will graduate in August 2023.  I'm a proud dog mama of a Beagle named Murphy, who I rescued as a puppy!  I love country music and attending concerts, traveling, and cheering for the Chicago Bears and Chicago Cubs!  I have a soft spot for rescue/adoption animals and love to see them get a second chance at life.
