Alex graduated from Laurentian University in 2019 with a Bachelor of Science in Forensic Science. After gaining experience through animal-related volunteer work, she discovered her passion for veterinary care and made the transition to become a veterinary assistant while she worked towards completing her veterinary technician degree - while working full time! Currently, she is working towards her Certified Rehabilitation Assistant (CCAT) designation.

​

Outside of work, she shares her life with three amazing dogs: Moose, Bunny and Summit. Together they enjoy hiking and a variety of dog sports including agility, scent work, frisbee and field training. Her goal is to combine her academic background and hands-on experience to provide compassionate, high-quality care to every animal she meets.
