"The core passion that drives me to pursue veterinary medicine comes from seeing innocent animals fail to get the care they need and deserve. Saving precious animals' lives and helping mend them back to health is most important to me. Every animal deserves a happy, healthy life, and I plan to live that mantra by being the best at what I do, and giving my all to my patients, every day. After spending a summer working as an administrative assistant at an animal hospital, I have an even greater passion for becoming a veterinarian. Should OSU choose to accept me into its veterinary medicine program, I will give my best to my studies and actively contribute to the program in any way that I can."
