What do you like about the UD College of Agriculture and Natural Resources?
The College of Agriculture and Natural Resources allows you to have unique hands-on experiences out on the farm or in the wilderness, which are a delightful escape from the classroom.
What is your most memorable Ag or UD experience?
Last spring break, I took the Artificial Insemination course that was organized through the Animal Science Club. We were able to practice on dissected cow reproductive tracts and even got "arm's deep" in the female cows on the farm.
What are your career goals?
I aspire to attend veterinary school and graduate with a specialization in small animals and exotics. I would love to be a veterinarian at a zoo or safari and get to help animals of all different, extraordinary backgrounds.
What is an interesting or unusual fact about you?
I have never had a nose bleed!
What is your favorite book, movie, or song?
My favorite movies are The Shawshank Redemption & Pulp Fiction. I can't just pick one.
