About
From a young age I knew I wanted to work with animals so after completing my A-levels I pursued a career in Veterinary Nursing; I qualified with a Level 3 Diploma in Veterinary Nursing in 2013.
My whole Veterinary career I have worked in Referral and I previously worked in the Surgical Department at a Referral Hospital. I am an Orthopaedic Surgical Team Leader here at Swift Referrals, I enjoy all aspects of my job but Surgery is my passion. I have a keen interest in all things Surgery and Anaesthesia and I am currently studying for my Nurses Certificate in Anaesthesia. In the future I would like to also complete the Nurses Certificate in Surgical Nursing.
Out of work I enjoy going to the gym, socialising with family and friends, travelling and going on long walks with my rescue dog, Peppa.
