When I was nine years old, the horse that my sister was riding stepped in a gopher hole.

    Through my late teen years I envisioned living in Santa Monica, California. The warm climate, pet friendly areas, and being on my own were at the top of my list. I would be attending The Academy of Art University located in San Francisco, through online courses, majoring in fashion design. My “backup” passion would be the animal health and rescue field. I had always had a passion for animals, from showing Golden Retrievers and Netherland Dwarf rabbits, to my first official job as a feline caretaker with The Second Chance Humane Society at age thirteen. Upon entering the fashion world, I quickly discovered that I would have extreme difficulty with the stress levels due to competitiveness and the overwhelming…

    As a student who is scientifically minded and passionate about the health and well-being of animals, I have decided that I would like to have a career as a veterinarian.

    My past academic experiences have not been the best. I was too focused on fitting in rather than moving forward into what I wanted to become in life. Although my grades say otherwise, I know I can do anything I put my mind to. Ever since I was a little girl I knew I wanted to become a veterinarian. Throughout high school many people tried to change my mind about becoming a veterinarian because of my grades. I would always say to them, " A grade will never define who I really am and what I can really do, You just can't push a fish to want to start walking when all it wants' to do is swim." Nobody really knew how passionate I was about animals and how determined I was to becoming a veterinarian. I recently started college about a year ago, since…
