Position: Receptionist

Qualifications: HND Animal Care

When I was young it was never really a question of what I would do when I grew up, I always knew it would involve looking after animals. Going through High School I didn’t really worry about subjects that I should take- I wanted to work with animals, and that’s all I cared about! In my fourth year I completed work experience on a dairy farm which I absolutely loved. However, I struggled with some aspects of farm life, especially as a young teenager. I then started work at a local cattery, which I loved, having always been a cat lover!

I started my HND in Animal Care at Oatridge College in September 2009. After achieving my HND in 2011 I soon after began working at Apex Vets as a Veterinary Receptionist. I love getting to know all the patients that come into the practice and trying to help make their visits as positive as possible. I also have an interest in animal nutrition and behaviour.

I live in Dunipace with my husband Paul, our Cockatiel Khaos (she really is!) and our Whippets Stryder & Piper.  When we aren’t working you will find us hiking a mountain or running up a hill!
