Veterinary Assistant

Since 2017

 

Jon is a native of Atlanta, growing up mostly in the town of Stockbridge. In May 2013, he graduated from Woodland High School and then graduated from the University of Georgia in May 2017, with a Bachelor’s of Science in Agriculture. Jon plans to pursue his dream of becoming a veterinarian, with an emphasis in exotic animal medicine or radiology. While attending school at UGA, he was able to intern at the teaching hospital and volunteered with an equine medicine veterinarian.  Jon started with The Village Vets in the summer of 2014 as an intern. He was then hired on as a seasonal employee until joining full time in May 2017.

Why he does this: “I just want to do this. I can’t imagine working in any other field. I love being able to help the animals and make them better. I also love seeing the happiness that owners feel when their best friends get better”.
