Additional Information

I have just graduated high school, and am taking a gap year to work and gain experience in other aspects of life, like travelling and doing new things. I am applying to Veterinary school next fall and am so excited to pursue my love of helping and taking care of animals. I have a big heart when it comes to people and animals, so any experience with both is very valuable to me.
