Biography:
Janet was born in Evanston, Illinois and grew up in Racine, Wisconsin. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin – Madison with a BS degree in Microbiology. Following graduation, Janet moved to Colorado. After working in a lab for a few years, she decided to attend Bel-Rea to become a veterinary technician. Janet worked at small animal clinics, at an emergency clinic and at a large 24 hr specialty hospital. Janet was given the opportunity to teach Microbiology at Bel-Rea and realized then that she loves to teach. The class she enjoys most is Pre-Clinical because the faculty and students get to give back to the community by spaying and neutering dogs and cats for the Aurora Animal Shelter. In turn, Bel-Rea’s students gain valuable hands-on experience. Instructor since 1987.
