About Me

Salutations! Here is a brief summary of the achievements, skills, talents, aspirations, and interests of yours truly; Christina Mascola.
I graduated from Brookfield High School in June of 2007. I made the decision to begin pursuing my career path immediately after graduating high school and landed my first job as a Receptionist for a successful electric motor control corporation, Electric & Electronic Controls (EE Controls). After working at EE Controls for approximately two months, I realized it wasn't a suitable match for me.
I happened upon another Receptionist position at Plumtrees Animal Hospital. With my lifelong passion for animals and ever-increasing intrigue for medical knowledge, it was a fulfilling and rewarding employment opportunity. I was cross-trained as a Veterinary Technician after working as a Receptionist for roughly five months. I opted to take a better-paying Vet Tech position with Mill Plain Veterinary Clinic in April of 2008.

Working as a Veterinary Technician has been an exceptional learning experience for me. I have gained a multitude of diverse skills and vast amount of knowledge pertaining to Veterinary Medicine. I was fortunate to have the privelage of attending the Atlantic Coast Veterinary Conference in October 2008. It was quite exhilarating to be exposed to new topics and information relative to Veterinary Medicine.
I envision working within the Veterinary Medical career field for many more years to come.

As for my talents and skills; they range from Drawing and Photography to Designing Websites. Accompanying these talents is my knowledge of computers and technology. I have been building websites in my spare time for roughly 3 years and in the process have gained a great deal of experience with HTML coding.
I also love Writing. Creative writing, Writing Lyrics & Poetry, and Fictional Stories.
Another great interest of mine is foreign languages and cultures. I speak a fair amount of French and am currently in the process of learning to read/write Japanese. My future goal is to learn to read and write Ancient Egyptian.
