Dr. Ari Huenchunir Baldrich, DVM

Dr. Ari M Huenchuñir Baldrich (They/Them/Theirs) received their Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Tufts University in Massachusetts. They're love for helping animals in need began in their early childhood growing up in the Dominican Republic where they personally experienced the extensive overpopulation of stray animals and the lack of veterinary resources available. They grew a passion for giving back to their community, low-cost community veterinary care, shelter medicine, surgery and preventative care.

They have a silly little tortoiseshell kitty named Kira and a sweet beagle named Lulú. They spend their free time playing rugby, watching anime, attending live-music events, connecting with nature and the Queer & Latinx community, trying all kinds of cultural foods and looking for new adventures to go on.
