Geneva Akinniyi

Since Geneva Akinniyi is camera shy, here’s a picture of their dog Sassy - their beagle lab mix. Geneva graduated with an honours degree in Women’s and Gender Studies with a minor in Sexuality Studies at Carleton University in 2021 and fortunately followed their love of animals and client care to a position as a veterinary receptionist. 

Geneva has been in the vet world since 2022 and cannot explain how fulfilling it has been. First working as an emergency receptionist and finding emergency medicine a bit too fast paced, they’ve switched to general practice reception where they can apply their love of making people laugh, hugging big fluffy dogs, and building a friendly rapport to work. 

Besides their job, Geneva enjoys hiking, educational videos, Minecraft, sustainable living, and feminisms. You can often find them hanging out with their friends and family, doing DIY projects, and patting Sassy on the belly!
