Kelly has been with Banfield since May 2018, and is pursuing a degree to become a veterinary technician, graduating in April 2020. Her passion for animal care comes from her deep love for her pets - Lucy, a border collie/lab mix, and Dinah, a tabby cat. Outside of work, Kelly loves to spend time with her family (especially her two sisters, two nieces, and nephew). You can often find them hiking, roller-skating, jumping on the trampoline, going to parks and movies, or doing various crafts. She has always had family pets so she understands what an important family member each animal can become! Kelly also loves learning new things and constant development. These things motivate her every day, and drive her to continue her education in veterinary medicine as far as she possibly can. More Details >>
