Why did you choose your Warnell major?

Growing up around nature and animals, I knew I wanted to play a role in caring for and preserving the population of the wildlife around me. Majoring in Wildlife Sciences allows me to start on my pathway towards a career in the zoo field, where I can engage in aspects such as husbandry, enrichment and training in facilities that focus on education and conservation. Being on this degree pathway has allowed me to see how conservation can be supported in roles like that and many others, and it's so exciting to get to find my own way to contribute to it!

What's one thing you want your fellow students to know about you?

I love art and really enjoy incorporating it into what I do with wildlife! If you ever want a sketch of your favorite critter, I'm your girl!

What's your favorite Warnell memory?

One of my favorite Warnell experiences was getting to participate in a training session with horses at the UGA livestock arena as a part of my Animal Behavior class!
