She/Her
Dana Annemarie was born in Burbank, but she grew up in San Diego most of her life. She moved to San Francisco during the beginning of the pandemic and is studying Sociology at UCSB. She has always had an interest in human behavior but found a deeper passion in how animals interact with their owners. This passion began when she was given her first pet, Simba. The energy Simba gave her matched like no other; spastic, clumsy, and easy-going.
Her initial interest in working in the veterinary field peaked after she worked at a pet nutrition store, where she learned about pet nutrition and assisted in puppy socials. She initially did it for dog therapy but found a deeper curiosity in veterinary medicine.
Dana Annemarie enjoys spending time hiking, golfing, going to the beach, and dog sitting her niece, Dory (shown in the picture above).
