Greetings! I'm Jessica, and my roots trace back to the countryside of Illinois, where I grew up on a small farm. From those humble beginnings, I developed an unwavering passion for animal health, which has ultimately shaped my fulfilling career in the Animal Nutrition.

​

My academic journey led me to pursue my dreams. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Animal Science from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, IL, where I honed my understanding of the intricacies of animal well-being. Following that, I pursued my Master's degree in Animal Nutrition from Illinois State University in Normal, IL, deepening my knowledge in this vital aspect of animal care.

​

With over a decade of hands-on experience in animal nutrition, my career has been nothing short of enriching. I've had the privilege of working in both the dairy and beef industries, where I've contributed to enhancing the health and productivity of livestock. Additionally, I've provided valuable guidance on nutrition for a diverse range of animals, including horses, cats, and dogs, ensuring they thrive at their best.

​

Beyond my professional life, I find immense joy in spending quality time with my beloved horses, who have been a constant source of inspiration and companionship. Family is at the heart of everything I do, and I cherish the moments I get to share with them, creating lasting memories.

​

This platform is my way of sharing my wealth of knowledge and experiences in animal health and nutrition. I hope to offer valuable insights, tips, and advice to fellow animal enthusiasts, professionals, and pet owners alike. My goal is to foster a community of individuals who share the same passion for ensuring the well-being of our furry and feathered friends.

Thank you for visiting, and I encourage you to explore my content, and reach out with any questions or insights you may have.

 

Let's embark on a journey to make the world a healthier and happier place for our beloved animals together!
