Emily has lived in the Okanagan for 14 years. From a very young age she has always tried to be an advocate for all animals, from raising money for the SPCA by doing bake sales and bottle drives, to taking in strays or helping lost dogs find their families. She is thrilled to say she is now a Veterinary Assistant for the BCSPCA Penticton Veterinary Hospital and able to help all kinds of animals on a whole new level. In her spare time, she enjoys exploring the Okanagan and taking advantage of all it has to offer and spending time with her dogs, cat, and hamster.
