Summary

Currently a High School Senior with a major in Marine/Biological Science applying to colleges as an animal science/pre-veterinary medicine major. My childhood love for animals has developed into a passion of becoming a veterinarian. In addition to numerous hours of experience with household animals throughout childhood I have volunteered in a number of settings which has provided excellent hands on experience with animals. I have worked hard during high school and chosen many challenging classes to further explore the desire to pursue a science oriented career. I believe that the combination of education, volunteer experience, desire to learn and dedication that I would be an asset to any animal science/pre veterinary medicine program.
