Tuya's Story
Life
Graduated w/ DVM in 1996; married a DVM 2 weeks later. Moved to Las Vegas, NV and have been here ever since. We bought our home in 1997. Oldest daughter born 10/99; the twins (boy/girl) were born 5/02. Being vets we have a zoo- 3 dogs, 3 birds, 2 tortoises, 2 frogs (actually our daughter's), 1 Bearded Dragon, and a bunch of fish.

band 1 month into school and we're still going strong. Graduated with that DVM in 1996.
Workplace
Worked as a small animal vet from 1996-2004. Decided to take a "sabbatical" since June 2004 to be home with the kids. Now everyone is in school full-time so I'm also back to work full-time. I teach and am the Clinical Director for the Veterinary Technician Program at Pima Medical Institute here in Las Vegas. It's a great job- still working with the animals (especially the horses) and molding young minds with my vast well of knowledge (hah!). But the people are great and my schedule works so I still get out in time to pick up the little children from school.
