Sam started her Veterinary Nursing journey in 2017, doing all her work experiences through CareVets Napier. In 2019 she officially became a part of the CareVets team, working through the first COVID lockdown. As a new nurse this ignited her passion for nursing, finally graduating with her Diploma at the end of 2020. From a young age Sam knew she wanted to work with animals, to become a Zoo Keeper was her dream. Sam is a mother to 4 amazing young men who each day remind her she absolutely is the keeper of her own Zoo!
