Meet Anna Engrem

“I started at the Veterinary Medical Center (VMC) 19 years ago and discovered that I’m a neuro nerd! I love working on intriguing neurology cases and building client relationships. The University has also provided a supportive environment for me to start a family and get my VTS in neurology, giving me time off to study and money toward taking the test. 

“In addition to the great benefits and the central location, the caliber of technicians I work with keeps me at the VMC. It’s a great group of people that I’m happy to be a part of.”—Anna Engrem, Animal Care Technician Specialist, AFSCME Unit 7 - Technical
