I have a deep love for animals and a huge desire to help people by caring for their pets. I enjoy building connections with people and their pets.
2. Do you have any pets of your own?
I currently do not have any pets but I treat every patient as if they were my own.

4. What’s one piece of advice you wish every pet owner knew?
Prevention is better than cure. Always keep your animals on parasite prevention and get your pets desexed.

Rhinoceros because of their brute strength, but also the amazing work vets are doing to protect them from poaching.
