Client Service
Margaryta Karagodinga

Hometown
Margaryta has traveled across the globe to come to work with us at VCA Bellevue. She was born in Ukraine and when she was 9, moved to Germany where she lived for 3 years before moving to the States (Madison, Wisconsin). Margaryta has 1 brother, who shares her love of animals. She recently came to the West Coast to live in Issaquah this past year. Because her dad's job caused her family to travel, Margaryta became fluent in both Russian and English and she also speaks German.

Education/Experience
Margaryta has been going to Bellevue College to study business management over the past year. She has always loved animals and had hoped to find a job where she could contribute to keeping our four-legged friends healthy--she found this with VCA Bellevue. Margaryta has fully committed to taking care of the needs of every one of our clients. As our most experienced member of our client service team, Margaryta has proven to be an essential component of our hospital.

Hobbies
Margaryta enjoys spending time with her family, hiking, site-seeing, doing yoga, listening to music, going to movies, and visiting exotic destinations.

Future goal
Within our hospital, Margaryta hopes to build her veterinary knowledge and become a member of our medical team.

Pets
While Margaryta does not have any pets currently; she is doing her research on adopting a puppy--most likely a mountain breed.

Favorite quote
"20 years from now you will be disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the one's you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."--Mark Twain
