Speaker: Robin Saar, RVT, VTS (Nutrition)

Robin graduated from the now TRU University in 1996, with a diploma in Animal Health Technology. She worked as an RVT in small and mixed animal practices until 2009, when she changed paths to manage a large canine, feline and equine boarding facility. In 2014, Robin returned to work as an RVT at a mixed animal practice where she progressed to the Practice Manager position for 3 years. She successfully completed her Veterinary Technician Specialty in Nutrition (June 2019), and a Certificate in both Small Business Human Resources, and Small Business Management. Her passion for nutrition is apparent to those who have attended a session, where she has spoken on nutrition, effective communication, and team building. Her current role as the National Nutrition Ambassador at Vetstrategy is a one-of-a-kind role for an RVT. She looks forward to sharing her passions as an RVT with others. “Nutrition is a part of every pet, every day”.
