Tenneal graduated from The University of Queensland in 2019 with dual bachelor's degrees in Veterinary Technology and Agribusiness.
Following graduation, she moved to New Zealand to take up a position as a production animal veterinary technician within the veterinary teaching hospital at Massey University, the only veterinary school in New Zealand. Tenneal is still working at Massey and is now the senior production animal technician.
Tenneal’s role is split between clinical work, focusing on small holders and production animals as pets but also helping with commercial production animal tech work throughout the year, teaching of undergraduate veterinary students both on final year clinical rotations and into the younger years of the program and research, coordinating surgeries, husbandry and anesthetizing animals for several trials. Her passions as a production animal veterinary technologist include preventative medicine and ruminant (and pig) anaesthesia.
Tenneal has completed additional studies to become an associate fellow of the Academy of Advanced Higher Education and has maintained registration with The Allied Veterinary Professionals Regulatory Council of New Zealand since graduating from university.
Tenneal has presented at conferences and has been published in veterinary nursing journals both domestically and internationally and in 2023 was named New Zealand’s veterinary nurse of the year.
