Tori - Veterinary Assistant

Tori

Hi, I’m Tori! I’ve been part of the Hickory Ridge family for a little over two and a half years, and I truly love what I do.

I’m currently working toward becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician through the Penn Foster program, and my big goal is to one day specialize in orthopedic medicine for dogs.

Before working in the hospital, I spent four years as a behavioral dog trainer, which gave me a strong understanding of how dogs think, learn, and communicate. That experience really helps me connect with our patients and make their visits as stress-free as possible.

When I’m not at the hospital, I’m usually with my own dog, Kaos. He’s an 8-year-old German Shepherd with a big personality who keeps me busy and makes every day a little more fun. We love spending time outdoors together, especially hiking.
