Meet, Alex! Your friendly neighborhood Sr. Clinic Manager for the Manhattan Beach & Playa Vista locations at Modern Animal. Passionate about creating a clinic culture where feedback is a gift, Alex believes in open communication and fostering an environment where every team member feels empowered to bring their authentic selves to work—whether that means lending a helping hand, sharing ideas, or having a little fun!

Whether it’s stepping in to help a colleague or sharing knowledge to solve complex cases, our team thrives on working together.

Hard work and compassion are at the core of everything we do, and our shared goal is simple: to provide exceptional care for pets while fostering a positive, uplifting environment where our team can learn and grow together.

Dedicated to animals, teamwork, and making work feel like family, Alex brings a lot of heart, humor, and realness to the clinic every day
