Kylie Shepherd

Hello, I'm Kylie. I'm a veterinary technician of almost 10 years. I'm looking for a new job.

I am a hardworking, well-driven, and self-starting employee. I strive to help clients and co-workers figure out the next path to take and achieve goals. I’m a natural leader. I do well individually or in groups.

I graduated high school with some college credit and have gone on to work from the bottom up as a kennel tech to a senior veterinary technician and lead surgery technician In my off time I enjoy spending time with my pets, family, and friends. I also love being out in nature,

traveling, hiking, camping, and taking nature and animal photography. I’m a very creative and artistic person, I have a slew of different crafts and projects I'm working on at any given time, as well as doing some tattooing on the side.

I am looking for a career where I can blossom, expand my knowledge and skill set, along with taking on some new responsibilities. While helping others also blossom and achieve their goals.
