September 2021

Mackenzie Faircloth

Hometown: Burns, WY

Expected Graduation Date: May 2023

Length of time worked at the lab: 10 months

What you like about working here: I really enjoy this job because I get to see a variety of animals daily, and I always learn something that will apply to me as a veterinarian in the future. It is beneficial to see a case that you worked on move through the lab for a diagnosis.

Hobbies/something we don't know about you: I always find myself outdoors any chance that I get whether that be on horseback or just hanging out with friends. I also love to try new recipes when I have time!

Future Plans:  After I graduate from the University of Wyoming with my bachelor's, I plan to attend a graduate school to pursue a DVM license with aspirations to become a large animal veterinarian and study in the field of high-altitude reproduction.
