Haven grew up farming and ranching in the Brooks and Patricia area, where she always kept herself surrounded by cattle and horses. During and after finishing a Health Sciences degree at Mount Royal University, she continued to work with livestock at various ranches and vet clinics, including Bow Valley Livestock Health in 2019. After a year of cow poking in Saskatchewan, her passion for science and cattle led her to BVG as a herdsperson in 2024.
