Summary

I was an IB student at Deerfield Beach High School. I now attend the University of Central Florida, and am studying Biology on the Vet Track because of my interest in veterinary medicine. I absolutely adore all animals and I am very passionate about taking care of them. I look forward to continuing my education further in this field.
