Andrea was born and raised in Spokane. She's wanted to work with animals for as long as she can remember. Andrea took two years of a veterinary assisting program at Newtech Skills Center, where she maintained a 4.0 GPA, perfect attendance, and became the only one of 30 students to graduate as a certified veterinary assistant. While working in a clinic, her strong passion for the field made her decide to continue her education studying Veterinary Technology through Penn Foster's online program, as she hope to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician!

When not working or studying, she enjoys spending time with her little sister Evelyn, staying at her family cabin on Twin Lake Idaho, snowboarding, and hanging out with her "zoo" of pets!
