History and Background
Chelsey has always known she wanted to work with animals, which led her to pursue her passion at Northwestern State University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Veterinary Technology in 2025. She became licensed as a Registered Veterinary Technician in 2025, fulfilling a lifelong dream of working in veterinary medicine. As part of her training, she completed her internship at Bellevue Animal Clinic. During that time, she fell in love with the staff, the atmosphere, and the level of care given to every patient - and she knew it was where she wanted to stay.
