Sophia started life in Levittown, PA where she played all sorts of sports.  She attended Mercer County Community College playing college softball.  While attending MCCC, Sophia was part of a veterinary assistant externship which she completed here at Princeton Animal Hospital.  She knew she “wanted to join this amazing, kind-hearted team.”  And she did - in September 2021.

Sophia currently has one dog named Oscar.  Oscar is a senior dog whose DNA profile is American Staffordshire Terrier, Bulldog, Chihuahua and Tibetan Spaniel Mix.  Oscar was found outside behind a trash can - hence her name Oscar, after the Sesame Street character.  Sophia credits Oscar with giving her the extra confidence she needed to pursue her dream of becoming a vet tech.

During Sophia’s free time she loves being outside enjoying nature.  She enjoys hiking and discovering new places and spending time with her family and friends - and those friends include animals.  She is also still a huge Philadelphia sports fan. 

At work, Sophia enthusiastically soaks up new knowledge and skills.  “My role at the practice currently is to do everything I possibly can to make the hospital run more smoothly - anything I can do to help out the team.  I truly love my job!”  And we truly love having her as part of our team!
