Brooklyn Westerfield
Brooklyn, a first-year student from Paris, Illinois, participated in several opportunities to expand her large and small animal experience as an undergraduate. This summer she will work at a mixed practice clinic to gain hands-on learning through real-world experiences. Brooklyn hopes to work at a rural mixed general practice near her hometown after graduation.
