About
My lifelong dream, even as a child, was to become a Veterinarian so that I could care for and treat sick animals back to health so that they could be happy, healthy, and be a part of a loving family. After graduating high school I attended my college freshman year as a Business Management major so that I could pursue my dream by opening up my own business as a Veterinarian. At the end of my freshman year I changed majors to Pre-Veterinary Medicine so that I could minor in Business Management as well as obtain the Veterinary degree I always dreamed of. Later on I decided against minoring in Business so that I could put my full attention on becoming a Veterinarian in order to fulfil a childhood dream and help as many animals as I could.

- Outside the classroom
I enjoy reading because it helps to expand my mind by learning about different cultures, vocabulary, writing styles, and human perspectives. Reading helps me reach beyond the horizons of what is known and what is thought to be by allowing me to escape the real world and enter a new world of imagination where anything is possible. I've always found comfort in animals so it fills me with joy to spend time with different animals by providing companionship, care, and attention to them so that they feel loved, happy, and taken care of. I also enjoy writing short stories of my own that were inspired by my favorite books, events in my life, or ideas I have in my mind.
