Month: July 2020

As I prepare for my last two years of college I also have to prepare for admission into vet school. My 3rd year is crucial in order to be a competitive applicant. This year I will take these necessary steps to get ready for my future career as a vet:

• Applying for a job as a vet assistant or simply shadowing a vet for more vet hours
• Keeping my GPA up by prioritizing school work
• Establishing and developing relationships with more vets, OSU staff, and professors
• Applying for a winter, spring, or summer internship at the Columbus zoo
• Taking a study abroad trip in summer 2021 to South Africa for Exotic Animal Welfare and Behavior
• Preparing for the GRE in summer 2021

It is hard to say exactly what I want my future to look like considering that values, opinions, and visions can always change with more experience. But what I can say is that I for sure can’t see a future that doesn’t involve animals, videography, and travel.  My dream is to work with zoo/exotic animals. Although I don’t mind working at a zoo in the future, I would really like to work as an international travel vet, treating animals, working in field research, and being involved with conservation awareness education. While I travel, I want to document my experiences through photography and videography. I also plan on making other personal projects- such as short films- and projects for others such as filming documentaries, events, music videos, concept videos, dance classes, and much more.
