G'day! My name is Amirah Winn, and I am 20 years old. I attend UC Davis in Northern California where I'm studying Animal Science. In hopes of becoming a veterinarian, I have curated my university years around animal experiences, including my current study abroad trip to Sydney, Australia. I am taking classes at this university, including animal nutrition, animal behavior, and even Australian wildlife biology! While furthering my pre-veterinary pathway with the wide variety of knowledge I am acquiring, I also have the opportunity to explore the city. Sydney is Australia's most populated city, with famous sites such as the Sydney Opera House and Bondi Beach! Some of the amazing experiences I have participated in include whale watching, waterfall hikes, and sand duning. I am excited to share my future experiences with you!
