Jorja Starner

Dedicated and compassionate pre-veterinary student at Oklahoma State University with a strong foundation in animal science and hands-on experience in animal care. Raised on a cattle farm in central Ohio, I developed a deep understanding of animal husbandry, responsibility, and teamwork from an early age. Active participation in 4-H, FFA, and National Honor Society refined my leadership skills, work ethic, and commitment to excellence. Currently serving as a committee member of the Pre-Vet Club at OSU, I collaborate with peers to promote veterinary education and community engagement. My practical experience includes providing pet-sitting services, where I ensured the health and safety of animals. Additionally, working in customer service and food service environments honed my problem-solving abilities and fostered teamwork in fast-paced settings. Passionate about animal welfare, my ultimate goal is to pursue a career as a veterinarian. By combining my hands-on experience, strong academic background, and unwavering dedication to animal well-being, I am determined to make a positive impact in the field.

As an active FFA member I earned the FFA state Degree award through my hard work and efforts that I have shown toward the agriculture community and my FFA chapter. Participating and volunteering in many events.
