Facilitator Bios:

Lena Levison: I am a veterinarian who has been with Animal Care Services for 10 years and I also work in the Saputo Dairy Care Program with CCSAW & Pop. Med. Earlier I worked as a mixed animal veterinarian and completed an MSc in animal behaviour and welfare. I have two crazy Boston terriers, like to sing and play volleyball. I love to talk, I love to listen and look forward to meeting you at the CCC.

Theresa Martin: I am a master’s in science (Neuro) graduate with an RLAT. My main passions focus on topics in animal-human relationships, refinement of procedures and compassion fatigue resiliency amongst the animal care & use community. I am at my happiest when I am backpacking, speaking French or playing the ukulele.
