Carina joined Cascade Veterinary Hospital in June 1989 while she was still a student at Pierce College. At a young age, she knew she wanted to grow up and work for a veterinarian; Carina is very grateful that vet turned out to be Dr. Farris as he has made her almost 30-year-long career a wonderful one. Carina enjoys getting to know the clients of Cascade, along with their four-legged friends. When not spending time with her family, she enjoys running agility with her Perfect Poodle Jasmine, or trying to find time to ride her crazy Arabian [citation].
