"The skills I learned are all vital to have as I pursue a career in veterinary medicine, which is a field filled with unknowns and new paths that need to be explored. It is important that I have the drive to acquire knowledge because I will always be a student in this field."
Radricka Kelly-Olden ’22 worked multiple jobs, including as a tutor and supplemental instructor; was involved in student organizations; and participated in student-faculty research, an internship and service-learning.
