Daina lives and grew up in Welland, and knew she wanted to work with animals from a very young age. She attended St Clair College in Windsor and graduated from their Veterinary Technician program in 2014, and got her Registration shortly thereafter.

After graduating, Daina worked at various animal hospitals in the area until coming to join the Port Colborne Animal Hospital team in June of 2019. Her experience has allowed her to bring efficient, kind and commendable care to the patients and clients, along side her team members. Nursing is one of Daina’s favourite parts of the job because she loves to see our patients living their healthiest and happiest!

In her leisure time, Daina enjoys hiking with her dog Coco, playing with her kittens Edgar and Agatha, going to her box-fit class and spending time with friends and family.
