🌟Meet Emoni Bishop🌟
Emoni is a student in the Work-Based Learning Program at McKellar Technology Center, with plans to pursue Veterinary Medicine at MSU. For the past 8 months, she’s been gaining hands-on experience at Animal Medical Center under Dr. Alicia Anderson.
Dr. Anderson shares, “Emoni started by shadowing, but now plays an active role—assisting in exams, surgeries, giving vaccinations, and even identifying parasites under the microscope. She’s dedicated, takes initiative, and is a true asset to the clinic.”
Emoni is incredibly thankful to Dr. Anderson and her team for helping her build a strong foundation for her future in veterinary medicine! 💛💜
