What inspired you to work in veterinary medicine?
I’ve always had a strong connection with animals, but what really inspired me to work in veterinary medicine was realizing how much of a difference good care can make for both pets and their owners. I love being able to help animals when they’re sick, scared, or in pain, and I enjoy the medical side of the field as well. It’s rewarding to be part of a team that improves an animal’s quality of life and supports the people who love them. I love being able to advocate for animals who cannot speak for themselves.
