I grew up in Detroit and started working at Northeast Veterinary Hospital in 1978. I was still in high school at that time and graduated that June from Osborn High School. I have always had dogs in my life. I got my first cat as a stray in June 1978. I enjoy exotic pets also. I got my first ferret and three rats in 2009. Today I have two parrots, a cat, and a ferret.  After high school I was still working at the vet hospital as an Animal Assistant with Dr. Steven Steep DVM. In 1980 I started college at Wayne County Community College (WCCC). I finished at Macomb County Community College (MCCC) in 1990 with 90 credit hours and an Associates of Arts Degree.  I started working at East Detroit Animal Hospital in 1986, also with Dr. Steep. In May 2017 I joined the team at Warren Woods Veterinary as an Animal Assistant. I love caring for all the pets that come into Warren Woods Animal Hospital. I am happy to be working here with a great team that cares a lot. In my spare time at home, I enjoy going to art shows, and ferret shows with my girlfriend Christy. I also collect comics and movie posters as a hobby.
