Crysta
Veterinary Assistant
I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats. In the past, I’ve had snakes, lizards, frogs, and a tortoise. I’ve been working in the animal industry since October of 2023. My favorite thing about working here is being able to participate in a team; we flow like a sports team. When I was younger, I wanted to be a horror writer or write books about aquatic animals. My future career goals are to become an American Sign Language teacher. Outside of work, I enjoy longboard dancing and playing Magic: The Gathering. One skill I have is that I’m fluent in American Sign Language and I’m learning Spanish Sign Language.

Riley
Veterinary Assistant
Currently, I have 5 dogs: two working line German Shepherds named Paisley and Kimber, a Belgian Malinois named Vendetta, a French Bulldog named Henry, and a Cane Corso named Callie. I’ve been working in the animal industry for 4 years, and my favorite part of working in a vet office is working with animals and helping clients with their pets in times of need. As a child, I always wanted to be a veterinarian, and my future career goals include finishing tech school and possibly going to school to become a veterinarian. Outside of work, I enjoy training my dogs, off-roading, camping, and boating.

Tasha
Receptionist
From the moment I can remember, I have been surrounded by pets—today, I share my home with four dogs and seven cats. My deep respect for animals drives every aspect of my work, and I find immense satisfaction in supporting both the pets who come through our doors and the families who love them. Outside of work, I enjoy reading and traveling with my family. Whether I’m exploring new destinations or curled up with a good book, I always make time to connect with my own furry family at home. Caring for my dogs and cats enriches my personal life and continually inspires me to provide the best possible support to the clients and animals we serve at JAM. -

Stormy
I Initially began my career path in human medicine, but after relocating to a new state, I was unable to complete my schooling. Over time, I decided to confront my fears and pursue the career path I had originally been passionate about. I began working at a veterinary clinic in Pahrump and quickly discovered how much I enjoyed the field. Since then, I’ve been navigating the decision of which area of medicine I want to fully commit to and practice long-term.
