Nate Olson in the Veterinary Medical Center
Meet Nate Olson

“I spent most of my early career in the food service industry. A few years ago, I decided it was time to start a new chapter, so I headed to Rochester Community Technical College to become a vet tech. I’ve always loved animals, so this field is a great fit for me. 

“Interning at the Veterinary Medical Center proved that I was not only in the right field but also in the right clinic. Even as a nontraditional vet tech student, I fit right in at the VMC. I’m always learning, and so is everyone else. 

“In addition to a good work environment, I get fantastic benefits. The medical, dental, short- and long-term disability, and retirement pension I get at the University are phenomenal.”—Nate Olson, Senior Veterinary Technician, AFSCME Unit 7 - Technical
