What do you like about the UD College of Agriculture and Natural Resources?
I love the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources because I feel at home there. It's such a great community within the larger UD community and I feel like a part of both. I also love all the hands-on opportunities to work with animals!
What is your most memorable Ag or UD experience?
I really loved working with dairy calves my first semester here. I had never worked with calves before so I learned so many new things and had a lot of fun doing it!
What are your career goals?
I hope that one day I will be a veterinarian. I have considered a wide range of opportunities in the field of veterinary medicine, but right now I am leaning towards something at a zoo working with exotic animals. It changes a lot as I keep learning about new things!
What is an interesting or unusual fact about you?
I was bit by a rattlesnake while I was camping.
What is your favorite book, movie, or song?
My favorite book is pretty much anything Jane Austen, but I really like Persuasion and Pride and Prejudice!
