Inez

I have over 40 years of experience in the veterinary field, but my love for animals began long before that. I started my career at the Bronx Zoo, where I worked with the camel and pony rides and spent several years in the Children's Zoo. Those early experience4s helped shape my lifelong passion for animals and their care.

I attended SUNY Farmingdale, where I earned my Associate's degree in Veterinary Technology. Since then, I have always worked in the animal field, with experience as a veterinary technician, office manager, and receptionist. No matter what role I've been in, working with animals and helping the people who love them has always been especially meaningful to me.

When I'm not at work, I'm surrounded by my own little zoo! I have my dog, Hogan aka front desk supervisor; my two cats, Emmy and Wednesday; two Crested Geckos, Jack and Oscar; and a few hermit crabs. My pets keep life interesting and are a big part of who I am. I truly believe every animal deserves compassion, patience, and the very best care we can give them.
