Nicole Smith

Veterinary Technician

Originally from Colorado Springs, Colorado, Nicole started her education in zoology and found her first dream career at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, working with large cats, primates, and ungulates. After Moving to the beautiful PNW, she established as a veterinary technician and practice manager at an equine and companion animal hospital. She also volunteered her time with the West Sound Wildlife Shelter. Following time spent overseas, Nicole returned to Washington and began a new adventure with the Military Working Dogs and privately owned animals at the Bangor Veterinary Treatment Facility, where she elevated the standard of care and streamlined efficiency. Currently residing near the Olympic Peninsula, she spends time taking walkabouts with her dogs, growing dahlias, and tending to her heritage poultry. “I am overjoyed to be starting this opportunity. I wouldn’t imagine doing anything else.”
