Great experience for future veterinarian

Andrea Russell volunteers in the Longaker Animal Lab.

Ever since she was a little girl, Andrea Russell has dreamed of being a veterinarian, partly because she enjoys interacting with animals and partly because she believes they deserve a voice. In her quest to become a veterinarian, Andrea has taken on a job that’s giving her exceptional hands-on experience and valuable career prep, working part time at Fremont Animal Hospital. “I get to do the same things as the vet techs,” Andrea explains. She’s also getting great experience on campus as a volunteer in the Longaker Animal Lab, even planning a research project – an observational study with enrichment of the lab’s subjects – for her Honors Anatomy class. With her well-rounded experience, Andrea will be well positioned to provide great care as well as a voice to the animals she loves when she enrolls in graduate school and beyond that, in her career.
