Shelby takes great pride in assisting doctors and technicians during surgical procedures and anesthesia monitoring, and she particularly enjoys running laboratory diagnostics to support patient care. When she isn't at the hospital or studying, Shelby loves spending time with her friends, family, and her four "furbabies": Frankie, Mator, Olaf, and Ahmari. She stays busy taking her two dogs on camping trips and long walks. She also has a passion for the kitchen, where she enjoys baking and experimenting with new recipes.
