Description

My name is Johanna, and I recently completed my veterinary medicine degree in an English-language program in Latvia. Through clinical placements and volunteer work in different countries, I have gained hands-on experience in small and large animal practices, emergency care, and settings related to animal welfare.

Before starting my veterinary studies, I earned a degree in business administration and worked for several years in project- and operations-related roles within an international company. I am an open-minded, reliable, and organized person who enjoys being part of a team and is always happy to learn something new.

More details about your skills

I grew up very rural in Germany surrounded by nature and a lot of animals. In my almost 20 years of active involvement in competitive vaulting, I have been trained and continuously educated in the special handling of horses. As a trainer, it has been a great pleasure for me to pass on this knowledge to the participants and to take and convey responsibility for animals and humans.

After finishing school, I was jobbing, traveling and taking internships and started into dual studies of business administration. Working for an engineering and event office, I have knowledge in project management and technical equipment. I was traveling for different projects and loved to be on the road.

Hereafter, I worked five years as project manager in the product management in a company at a different part of Germany. I took responisibility for the realisation of several projects and the trade shows as well as in product development and distribution. At work, I joined forces with a group of greenkeepers. Here, we built a greenhouse, started composting on the company grounds, and made fresh fruits and vegetables available to employees.

The last six years I lived in Latvia for my studies and worked part-time remotely for a company in Germany in Custom Application Writing Service. During years summer break I spent my time working in small animal clinic, travelling and volunteering. Now starting into my new career as a veterinarian.
