Pets have always played a huge role in Jacob’s life. Working in veterinary medicine has allowed him to combine his love for animals with a stable, rewarding career. Jacob enjoys helping pets and their worried families because “pets are members of the family for a lot of people, and their concern and worry is equivalent in many cases to their own children.” Outside of work, Jacob prefers spending quiet time alone, playing video games, and creative writing. He has two rescue cats—Big Boy and Skitty.
