My name is Elizabeth Ohl, and I am a first year undergraduate student at The Ohio State University. I live in a small, rural town – Alexandria – which is about 40 minutes east of Columbus. I have an unconditional love for animals and a passion of living a healthy lifestyle. I am pursing a major in Animal Science, with a possible double major in Human Nutrition. In the future, I plan on going to graduate school to become a veterinarian with a specialty in swine and cattle. I am currently a member of the Environmental and Natural Resources (ENR) Scholars program at OSU. This scholars program will foster my passion of caring for the environment and will help me to flourish as a leader and member of my community.
In high school I was a member of the National Honor Society, the president of Latin Club, a student leader of the Kairos team, and the Vice President of Student Council. I also participated in varsity volleyball, liturgical choir, Drama Club, and Key Club. Outside of school I enjoy painting, playing the piano, lifting weights, helping my peers grow in their faith at youth group, and showing hogs and rabbits for 4-H. I am the Distinguished Young Woman of Ohio for 2018 and won the Fitness Preliminary Award at the national competition in Mobile, AL this summer.
I am extremely excited to be starting this new chapter of my life as a Buckeye, and I cannot wait to explore the opportunities The Ohio State University has to offer! Through exploring these opportunities I hope to broaden my horizon and learn new skills, so that I can become the best version of myself.
