I am a 20 yrld, M, traditional, Junior at the University of North Florida. I am very interested in science and how the world works and how our brain (in comparison to animals) perceives that working (neuroscience). I am the son of a long time practicing DVM from UF. My goal is to go to UF like my father and inherit/take on the family Veterinary business. I have qualified business experience and excellent social skills (extraverted). Additionally I lived in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, for 6 months off of my business proceeds.
