Hospital Administrator
Kristine Wahpeconiah

I was born and raised in Riverside, CA and moved to Las Vegas in 2003, shortly after moving I got a job at VCA Decatur. My job titles at VCA Decatur have been Receptionist, Office Manager, and Veterinary Assistant. I was promoted to Hospital Administrator in 2008. I am very grateful to have a job that I enjoy and to work with such great people who love and deeply care for our clients and their pets.

I am currently attending CSN where I am working toward obtaining my Associates degree in Business. During my free time I enjoy spending time with my 7 year old daughter Katelyn. I have 9 year old Siamese Mix named Keebler, a 2 year old Maltese Mix named Buzz, two Fire-bellied toads name CeCe and Rocky, and two Betta's named Dylan and Lila.
