About

I am currently in my last semester of the Master's of Pubilc Health student enrolled at the University of Vermont. My future goals include a career in infectious or zoonotic disease control and prevention. I am currently a Veterinary Technician in the state of NY, and this career has influenced my Public Health interests greatly. I enjoy the client education portion of my job, and think that because I do it daily it brings an advantage to my skill set. My scholastic background also includes an Associate's in Science degree in Veterinary Technology, and a Bachelor's of Science degree in Biology.
