Amy Sparks

Amy Sparks

Patient Care Assistant

In 2016 I graduated from Anglia Ruskin University with a 2:1 honours degree in Equine Science and Rehabilitation Therapies.

After graduating I worked for a pharmaceutical and veterinary wholesaler as a client development manager. It was during my time working there I realised I wanted to be hands on with animals which focused my determination to pursue a career in veterinary nursing.

I am enjoying learning about emergency care and I find feline behaviour very interesting.

I have two cats at home, Missy and Milo. Missy was a pregnant stray that I took in, three of her kittens were re-homed to close friends and I kept one, Milo. I also have Horse named Fly.

Outside of work I am a hands-on horse owner, actively competing. I spend my spare time out of work socialising and I enjoy travelling to new places.
