Justina Cherry
I am a freshman this year at Iowa State University majoring in Animal Science. My plan is to apply to veterinary school after completing my bachelor degree and work with both large and small animals. Although I didn't grow up on a farm, I have been around a lot of farm animals in my life and that is what made my passion of caring for animals obvious to me. Caring for animals would mean that everyday my work would have purpose and meaning. I know that to be a caretaker of an animals well-being requires a lot of knowledge and I am willing to work hard to obtain that knowledge.
