Alura, Lead Technician

Alura, Lead Technician

Alura was born in California and moved to Arizona as a child, and she loves the heat! She always knew she wanted to work with animals and graduated with her certificate in Veterinary Assisting from Carrington College in 2014. In junior high, she volunteered at animal shelters and after high school volunteered at zoos and exotic animal rescues here in Arizona. She has worked as a technician since 2014, joined the SLCAC team as our technician lead in 2020, and she is currently studying to become a licensed certified veterinary technician (CVT).

She lives with her boyfriend and their 13 pets- 1 dog, 3 rats, 2 cats, 1 snake and 6 tarantulas! Alura is always looking to learn new things and improve the quality of patient care. She is passionate in facilitating a calm, fear free environment for anxious pets and is striving to keep up to date with the newest techniques and educational resources in order to make your pets visit as low stress and positive as possible.  Alura takes pride in educating clients about the importance of preventative care and what you can do at home to keep your pet healthy and happy. In her free time, she enjoys crocheting, hiking, reading, spending time with family, watching hockey games and eating snacks.
