Following high school, her childhood dreams of becoming a Veterinarian lead her to NC State University in Raleigh where she earned her B.S. in Animal Science and fell into a career of recruitment, initially in aquatics. Joining NVA has given her the ability to combine two passions that are near and dear to her heart, consultative recruitment and animal welfare.
