Board Member
I am one of the two Veterinarians at Maple Leaf AgriFarms (MLAF) managing the health and animal welfare of all MLAF’s pigs across the province and Saskatchewan. I grew up in, the Philippines, raising pigs in our back yard, and I went straight to swine practice after graduating at University of the Philippines, College of Veterinary Medicine. I was a farm veterinarian for a pig production company in the Philippines and moved on to become a Technical Veterinarian for a feed company in the Philippines, teaching producers how to raise pigs across the country.
I came to Canada 11 years ago, worked in different swine production units, until I got my license to practice Veterinary Medicine in North America. I was very thankful that I get to practice swine medicine here in Canada, for I have always consider myself a pig advocate. I have, in total, 15 years of combined experience in swine production and swine medicine. I have 5 years of knowledge and experience on Raise Without Antibiotic pig production, and Gestation Crate Free /Loose housing system
