Fernanda

Originally from Brazil, I’ve always felt a deep connection with animals, which inspired me to begin my career as a kennel assistant and pursue veterinary care. I recently graduated as a Veterinary Assistant from PIMA Medical Institute, and I’m passionate about combining my knowledge and hands-on experience to provide exceptional care for every pet that comes through our doors. Outside of work, I love hiking and practicing Jiu Jitsu. I’m a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt and have spent several years teaching the martial art. My husband and I enjoy spending quality time together, whether camping or simply relaxing at home with our puppies: Charlie, a 14-year-old Lab/Great Pyrenees mix, and Onyx, a 2-year-old Doberman Pinscher. I’m eager to continue growing in this field and to be part of a team that shares my love and respect for animals.
