While working at Pirrones I have managed to work my way from hostess to waitress. These positions required I take orders over the phone, seat patrons in a timely manner, ensure guests have the best experience while dining in, clean tables, and help out wherever else I may be needed.

Apr 2017 - May 2019
I interacted with clients and their animals on a daily basis as the first point of contact for them when coming into the clinic. Everyday, I performed basic technician duties such as taking a thorough history, drawing blood, setting IV catheters, taking radiology films, filing prescriptions, safely holding patients for procedures, and caring for animals pre and post surgery, etc. At this practice. we worked with a mixed variety of animals. We incur large animals such as cows, and horses daily, with the occasional goat or pig. A major percentage of the practice deals with small animals though. For example: dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and reptiles were seen.
