Rachael graduated as a Veterinary Technician from Seneca College, King City, Ontario in May of 2010 but she has been working in a clinic setting since 2005 and has developed an interest in animal behaviour. Rachael initially came to Whitehorse to complete an externship with our clinic in the spring of 2010 but loved it so much that she wanted to stay and continue working with the Alpine team.
