Reina began her journey working with animals at a local pet store, often heading straight to her shifts after high school. It was there that she discovered her passion for animal care, which inspired her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine.

At home, Reina has three special pets. Kennedy is her dog, whom she found on Highway 4 in 2023. She also has Nora, a senior black cat who loves to cuddle, and Bobbi, her bearded dragon.

When she’s not at work, Reina enjoys staying active and exploring new experiences. Her favorite hobbies include hot yoga, hiking scenic trails, and trying new restaurants with friends.
