More about Selena

Receptionist

As the Receptionist at Mid Island Veterinary Practice, Selena brings heart, dedication, and a true passion for helping pets and the people who love them. Growing up in Staten Island, New York, she always felt drawn to animals and the meaningful relationships they bring into our lives. That connection inspired her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine—one where she could support both pets and their families with compassion and care.

Selena chose this profession because she loves interacting with animals and the humans who adore them. Every day, she strives to ensure that each client and patient feels comfortable, welcomed, and supported the moment they walk through the door. Her personal philosophy—“Be the change you want to see in the world”—guides her approach to leadership, client service, and team support.

At home, Selena’s life is filled with love thanks to her wife, Meaghan, and their three dogs—Hazel, Nutmeg, and Tiffany—who truly are her whole world. She believes deeply in the bond between pets and their people, and that belief inspires the level of care she brings to her work each day.

What Selena loves most about her role is the opportunity to enhance each client’s experience and contribute to the well-being of pets in the community. Supporting animal welfare and offering kindness in even the smallest interactions are the parts of her work that mean the most.
