Get to know the VEC team! 👀

Jessica is a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) who joined VEC in December 2023. She is a graduate of LaGuardia Community College and spent her first years as a technician in general practice at the Bronx Veterinary Center. There she honed her technical abilities, developed client education, and gained knowledge of veterinary operations.

Wanting to advance her skills, with a focus in anesthesia, Jessica joined Blue Pearl Pet Hospital where she was part of the ophthalmology and surgery/anesthesia departments for almost 4 years. She became a first time mom in 2020 and took time to spend with her family before returning to clinical practice, this time in emergency. She took a leadership role during the opening of Veterinary Emergency Group - Chelsea as a Veterinary Nursing Development Coordinator, and enjoyed training other team members.

After spending time coordinating an emergency room and elevating nursing care for a variety of patients, including exotic species, she decided to transition back to anesthesia and joined VEC in the anesthesia technician role. Her passion for anesthesia has grown even more and she looks forward to specializing further in the field.

In her spare time, Jessica loves spending time with her 4 year old, as well as her husband of 12 years. She enjoys gaming on her PS5 and short story/journal writing. Jessica is passionate about cats, beauty/fashion, and science, but she especially loves music. She enjoys any karaoke party!
