Samantha was born and raised in South Hadley, Massachusetts. Growing up, she wasn’t allowed to have pets at home, but animals always seemed to find their way to her for love and attention. From a young age, she knew that working with animals was her calling — and now, it’s her reality.

She attended South Hadley High School and earned her Design and Visual Communications diploma from LPVCTEC. Alongside her creative background, Samantha has a deep passion for photography, crafting, animal science, and true crime.

For seven wonderful years, she shared her life with her beloved lionhead rabbit, Tate, who has since passed. She now looks forward to finding her next animal companion. In her free time, Samantha enjoys hiking, spending time with her partner and his animals, and caring for the children in her family.

With a strong love for animals and a commitment to continued learning, Samantha plans to further her education in animal science to ensure she can provide the best care possible for her future patients.
