I have been working as a licensed Technician since I graduated from Yakima Valley Community Colleges Vet Tech Program in 2011. I enjoy spending my free time outdoors either working around the yard or hiking with my two dogs. I have a pit bull "Mercci" and a miniature dachshund "Karean" who both keep me on my toes. I love to snowboard in the winter and try to get to the mountains as much as possible.

Amber
Office Manager
I was born and raised in the Tri-City area. I decided to have a “grand adventure” and spread my wings so moved to Spokane Washington. I lived up there for 4 years and then decided it was time to come back home to the Tri-Cities. What the people in Spokane termed the “desert”
In my spare time, I love to read, look for antiques and work outside in the yard.
