About

I am a current PSM student here at Colorado State University with a Bachelor's degree in Animal Science from Oklahoma State University. I have been lucky enough to work with a variety of zoological associations, wildlife conservation efforts, animal shelters, and research efforts. I was a VSSP scholar with the CSU DVM program in 2024 and then continued my research on FIP with Dr. Samantha Evans into 2025. Through past experiences and the opportunity to become a published researcher, I have developed a deep love of laboratory and diagnostic work. Within that niche, I also am drawn to working with wildlife and exotics. Outside of my professional life I enjoy tabletop RPGs, dancing, and spending time at home with my spouse and cat.
