About: I am a 29 year old CVT who has been working in vet med for many years. I graduated tech school in 2013, I went back and got my B.S. in environmental science and graduated in 2019. My GPA is not so great, and my experience is mainly in small animal medicine, which is my main interest.
GPA
Cumulative: 3.5
Last 45: 3.47
Vet/Animal Experience:
>10,000 hours working as a CVT in small animal general practice (>1 year) and working in specialty/emergency for the rest. I have worked full time at 3 different hospitals and did my internship which was required by my school in a fourth. I have worked with dogs/cats and have some experience with exotic pets. Sometimes we euthanize wildlife in the ER, but do not treat.
>1000 hours fostering cats with a rescue & on my own, lots of experience fostering sick/injured cats and neonatal kittens
Employment
Part time food service employee throughout high school and my first undergraduate degree 2008-2013
My first Job as a kennel technician in an animal hospital 2007-2008
Worked for a doggy daycare/grooming facility 2009-2010
Extracurriculars:
~150 hours volunteering for a local hospice starting in 2020 prior to COVID
CVT since 2014
Recover (CPR) Certified 2020
Fear Free Certified 2021
Recommendation Letters:
- My community college chemistry professor who I took Gen Chem II (& Orgo II) he said he would explain how I managed to overcome a huge knowledge gap since it had been around 7 years since I took Gen Chem I
- The founder of the cat rescue I foster for
- An ER veterinarian who I have worked with for a few years, including during her internship
- Another ER veterinarian who I have worked with for around 7 years both at my current hospital and another specialty hospital in another state (pending)
