Vanessa

Veterinary Technician

Vanessa has been passionate about animals since she was little and thrives on helping them feel better, especially as part of Stafford Veterinary Center’s supportive team. She finds immense reward in her work and enjoys expanding her skills as a veterinary technician. Vanessa shares her life with her dog Chloe and her cat Sasuke, who inspire her love for veterinary medicine.

Outside of work, Vanessa explores her creative side through painting and drawing. She also enjoys staying active by lifting weights and practicing Jiu-Jitsu. In the fall of 2025, Vanessa will begin UConn’s pre-veterinary program to pursue her dream of becoming a veterinarian. She looks forward to making a difference in the lives of animals and their families.
