I am a veterinarian with 8 years of diverse work experience in animal health, welfare, and veterinary sciences. My career includes roles as a teaching assistant and lecturer, during which I specialized in delivering courses on animal health, anatomy, and physiology. I am skilled at breaking down complex scientific concepts into clear, engaging lessons and fostering a supportive and interactive learning environment for students.
In addition to my academic roles, I have served as a government veterinarian, where I gained extensive hands-on experience in veterinary regulation, disease control, and mitigation. These practical experiences have strengthened my ability to effectively connect theoretical knowledge with real-world applications.
I am passionate about online education and have developed the skills to create and deliver dynamic, interactive content in areas such as animal health, veterinary parasitology, and physiology. With a commitment to teaching excellence and lifelong learning, I aim to inspire and empower the next generation of professionals in veterinary and animal sciences.
