STUDENT OF VETERINARY MEDICINE SCHOLARSHIP

STUDENT OF VETERINARY MEDICINE SCHOLARSHIP

My veterinarian became one of my biggest role models, and I knew I wanted to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. Just like that doctor, I look forward to being there for others in crisis, providing sound medical advice at any hour, and promoting animal health with empathy.

CONTINUING EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIP

CONTINUING EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIP

During my third year of veterinary school, I had the life-changing opportunity to study acupuncture for animals in China. It was through this experience that I discovered the incredible healing power of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine. Now, I’m pursuing a Master’s degree in the field and look forward to merging these ancient practices with modern veterinary care.
