Jessica
Veterinary Assistant (Vet Tech in training)
Hi, I’m Jessica! I was born and raised in Arizona, but my love for adventure and the outdoors took me all over the place. I spent several years working as a raft guide and had the chance to live and explore some incredible spots like Alaska, Idaho, and Montana.
In 2019, I moved to the Hood River area for the kayaking and outdoor recreation, and I loved it so much, I decided to put down roots here. Surrounded by nature and a strong sense of community, it felt like home right away.
Animals have always held a special place in my heart, so finding my way to Tucker Road Animal Hospital felt like a natural next step. It’s been an amazing opportunity to combine my passion for animals with meaningful work. I’m also currently in school to become a Veterinary Technician, and I’m excited to keep learning and growing in this field every day.
When I’m not at the clinic or studying, you can probably find me outside—on the water, in the mountains, or just enjoying everything this beautiful area has to offer.
