David CVT

Certified Veterinary Technician


David was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, where his passion for animals began early during visits to his grandparents' ranch in Mexico. Surrounded by livestock and especially drawn to horses, he developed a deep appreciation for animal care and the human-animal bond from a young age.

Determined to turn his passion into a profession, David enrolled in Pima Community College's Veterinary Technician Program, graduating in 2024. He joined the team at Reata shortly after and became a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) in 2025. 

At Reata, David works closely with our veterinarians in both equine and small animal care, assisting in procedures, handling patients, and helping ensure high standards of care in both the clinic and in the field. His calm demeanor, strong work ethic, and bilingual skills make him a valuable member of the team and a great communicator with clients.

David aspires to continue his education and ultimately become a veterinarian. His dedication to learning, hands-on experience, and genuine love for animals are already paving the way toward that goal.
