Hello! My name is Ciera Lipper, and I am a driven, inspired freshman at OSU, excited to begin my studies as a Forestry, Fisheries, and Wildlife major on the pre-veterinary track. I grew up in Oregon, Ohio, where I shadowed at a veterinary clinic and discovered my love for animals. Becoming a part of the Biological Science Scholars at Ohio State was something that I felt would enhance my overall experience and understanding of animal life, as well as provide me with the resources to engage in research opportunities and mentoring for veterinary school. In addition, I hope to take part in many study abroad experiences, with my first one being a trip to Nicaragua this winter. I can’t wait to engage in all that Ohio State has to offer!
