Meaghan, Animal Health Tech

Meaghan joined her spouse in Edmonton in December, 2020 and started working at Beck Veterinary Clinic in January, 2021. She is a second-generation vet tech after graduating from the Saskatchewan Polytechnic Veterinary Technology program in 2015. Prior to moving to Edmonton, she worked at a canine/feline practice in Saskatoon, in shelter medicine at the Saskatoon SPCA, and teaching in the vet tech program at Saskpolytech. From a horse racing family, she has always worked with animals including positions at veterinary practices in Stilwell, Kansas, Toronto, Ontario, and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Most recently, Meaghan has started teaching again at NAIT in the Animal Health Technology program.

Meaghan enjoys competing in dog sports with her spaniel mix Beryllium (Rill) and Pomeranian Tusk Snowbeast (Tusk). Both have titles in Barn Hunt, Trailing & Locating (NASDA), and Urban Locating (NASDA). Of their two cats, Charlemagne (Bean) has previously competed in the household pet class in ACFA shows but is now retired. Gilgamesh (Gilly) is a Scottish Fold that decided to remain a house pet.

In her spare time, Meaghan enjoys cross country skiing, running, reading, and a variety of fiber-based crafts including knitting, sewing, and shuttle tatting.
