A superpower I wish I had: Definitely mind control...does this make me a dictator?

External Relations Coordinator: Trisha Zarinana Major: Animal Science Favorite Movie: Titanic or Hachi: A Dog's Tale Favorite Wild Animal: Elephants! A superpower I wish I had: Telepathy or the ability to talk to animals What I hope to bring to the club: I am committed to making this club grow stronger and inspiring our members to keep pursuing veterinary medicine. As a board officer, I want to plan events and invite diverse speakers that will inspire our members and show them that becoming a DVM is possible when you’re passionate and work hard. 5. Internal Relations Coordinator: Kirthi Hagalwadi Major: Animal Science Favorite Movie: The Parent Trap ('98) Favorite Wild Animal: Terrestrial: spider monkey and aquatic: dolphin A superpower I wish I had: The ability to multiply.

What I hope to bring to the club: I hope that students will not only be able to find mentors through our mentorship program, but also through our meetings when we have vets as guest speakers. Like Dr. Ewey for example, he left us his cell number and I’ve talked to him whenever I’ve needed reassurance in applying to vet school. In addition, I would also like club members to think of us more than just the board, and as friends who can help with finding connections, and giving advice when it comes to undergrad. 6.

The idea of taming dragons makes this movie especially appealing to me. Favorite Wild Animal: The Siberian tiger is my favorite wild animal because they look beautiful and majestic among snow. A superpower I wish I had: I would love to have the superpower to teleport. I won't have to bother being stuck in traffic or be late to class when I can easily teleport myself to the destination. Also since I live in SoCal, I can teleport myself home from the university whenever I desire. I won't have to waste my money on an airplane ticket or gas too. What I hope to bring to the club: Diversity is very important to me, especially since I am Asian American. I hope to help underrepresented students have access to information about veterinary-related careers and get the help they need to become successful. 9.
