BA, Elementary Education, Washington State
TIME IN VETERINARY FIELD: Since 1994
TIME AT CAWC: Since 2003. Owner & Founder
WHAT LIKE ABOUT JOB: Keeping day to day nonsense of running a business out of the doctor's minds so they can focus on keeping our patients healthy. Appreciating what an important role our patients play in their families. Watching such a dedicated, talented staff work their magic.
WHAT DIFFICULT ABOUT JOB: Minimal contact with clients/patients. Never feeling like doing a good job with any one task since duties so varied and unrelated.
HOBBIES: reading, plays, travel, hiking, biking, running, "projects" (current project building school in Africa. Blog at http://gbeapogeekan.blogspot.com), search and rescue (WESAR)
PREVIOUS NON-VETERINARY JOBS: Salish Sea Expeditions (founder).
Peace Corps - Liberia.
Backcountry trip leader with troubled teens.
Program development for various alternative and environmental education programs.
Classroom teacher

PLACE IN WORLD WOULD LIKE TO GO & WHY: Vietnam. Fantastic food and scenary. Inspiration that a culture/people can survive a horrible experience.
