Meet Your Internship Coordinator Kelly Sinkula
From Kelly Sinkula, RVT
“I just wanted to touch base and introduce myself. I have recently taken on the intern coordinator responsibilities for Adobe.
I am also the medical care manager for our South Bay location and I have been with Adobe for almost 25*yrs. I actually started here as a Foothill intern myself. Before moving to South Bay, I worked in the ICU and emergency for 18yrs and managed both departments for 16y with 2 other RVT managers. For 2 of those years we also managed the Surgery Dept. I currently split my time between office tasks and being on the floor as the surgery technician here. I am also on the interview team performing our veterinary skill assessment for any potential hire with experience, a process I helped develop.”
