Veterinary Assistant

Since 2018

Maritza grew up in Hoschton, GA with her parents, older sister, and their two Rottweilers named Oso and Chabela. After graduating from Jackson County High School in 2017, Maritza moved to Atlanta to attend Georgia State University and is currently working towards her Bachelor's degree in Biology. After graduating, her plan is to attend vet school and specialize in oncology.  In her spare time, Maritza loves going to concerts and traveling with her boyfriend Connor and catching up on sleep with their cat Houdini.

Why She Does This: "It's what I'm passionate about. I feel as though I connect with animals deeply, so having the ability to bring them and their owners comfort is extremely rewarding. I can't imagine myself doing anything else!"
