Blazing A Unique Trail

Grace, an animal science major and VMBS ambassador, is blazing her own trail as an Army cadet while pursing her dream of becoming a mixed animal veterinarian.

She is a proud member of the Corp of Cadets, contracted in the U.S. army, one of the few cadets selected to attended Army Air Assault School, and a member of the Corps Ranger Challenge team. Outside of serving the country, Grace has worked as a veterinary assistant and spent a summer working on a deer and exotic animal ranch.

Whether caring for animals or training with the challenge team, Grace embodies selfless service.
