My name is Laura and I’m a certified veterinary technician and have worked with the Tampa Bay Veterinary Hospital group since 2010. I was born and raised in Florida but I love traveling up north when I can.  I love working with animals and wouldn’t change what I do for anything! I have 2 cats of my own and their names are Banksy and Griffin. In my free time I enjoy working out, yoga and going to the beach.
