Bio

Committed to advancing veterinary medicine, I aim to join the select 1.5% of black female veterinarians in the U.S. My fervor for animal welfare is matched by a dedication to community outreach, particularly aiding the homeless and their pets. Through targeted initiatives, I offer essential veterinary care, recognizing the profound impact on both individuals and their animal companions. This hands-on experience, coupled with rigorous academic pursuits in Cellular and Molecular Biology, has fortified my resolve. In receiving a scholarship, I would leverage it to further enrich my education and amplify my impact, ensuring a future of excellence in veterinary care and community service.
