Kayla Lauren Reed grew up working for her father, Dublin veterinarian Dennis Reed. “I preferred being in the office managing and organizing over performing the dirty work required of a veterinarian, working as an assistant to the Office Manager played into me studying business administration,” she said. Now the director of customer operations for a GPS company, she credits her early work experience with leading her down her current path.
While in Dublin schools, Reed played sports until her sophomore year. She also showed livestock. “It was hard to play sports and be involved with livestock because of the time out of school,” she said.
With her parents’ support, she made a decision to show steers and heifers full time in an attempt to start earning money for college. “It was probably one of the best decisions I made,” she said. “It gave me the opportunity to travel around the United States and go to numerous states. I met so many different people.”
