Summary
I am an ambitious, dedicated student who wants to pursue a degree in veterinary medicine. There, I can give a voice to the voiceless, and advocate for animal welfare. I love veterinary medicine and everything it has to offer; I truly could not picture myself pursuing, and loving, any other career.
