Marissa began grooming in 2004 after working with animals for several years, including training in a working dog club.  She completed Kennelwood’s certification program & started at VGC in 2006. She has a BFA in Studio Art (concentrations in drawing & design). She stays up to date by attending trade shows and webinars.  

Marissa specializes in cats, hand scissoring, Asian fusion techniques, poodles, and terriers.  She especially enjoys dramatic transformations.  Her favorite part about grooming is loving a variety of dogs every day & making a positive difference in their lives.
