Katie joined the PBVC team in the fall of 2017 as a kennel assistant. Over time, Katie has learned more and more and is now training to be a room nurse! Her smile is infectious and her love for animals is apparent everyday she is here. She loves helping in our treatment room with technician appointments and setting up for surgeries and procedures. 
Katie grew up in San Diego and moved to San Luis Obispo to attend Cal Poly. She just finished her third year studying Animal Science. After college, she hopes to go to vet school! Back home she grew up surrounded by many different animals, ranging from dogs, snakes, bunnies, etc. You name it, she probably had it. Aside from her love for animals, Katie enjoys going on runs and cooking in her free time.
