Mark

Animal Care Attendant

I’ve spent the past 4 years shadowing veterinarians and have worked as a veterinary assistant in different hospitals in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and North Dakota. I have over 5 years of working in general practice and emergency medicine. Nearly completed a Masters in veterinary forensic science degree at the University of Florida Vet School. I also work occasionally at an emergency practice in Fargo.

I like how challenging veterinary medicine is and it's like solving a puzzle. I’m fascinated by the science behind everything.

Outside of work I enjoy travelling, swimming, gymnastics, going to movies, hanging out with my friends. I’m also a big foodie.

Two fun facts about me are that I am a crazy Pug fanatic! I also thrive in emergency medicine and love the rush you get when you successfully revive a patient or help them significantly when they are in distress.
