Meet Deborah Reeder, a Texas-based Registered Veterinary Technician who transitioned from a 10-year career as a flight attendant to a successful career as an equine veterinary technician. Deb’s experiences reflect insights and life lessons she’s garnered during her more than 30 years serving in veterinary medicine, including working in equine rehabilitation, anesthesia and intensive care; and creating her own equine practice management consulting company in 2001. In 2003, she founded the American Association of Equine Veterinary Technicians and serves as its current Executive Director. Listen to her talk about the importance of having a network, knowing your value, refusing to be stuck and having a willingness to experience everything that comes with stepping out of your professional comfort zone.
