Hi everyone! I'm Jon, a second-year veterinary student at the Ontario Veterinary College. I’m originally from California and came to OVC as an international student. Before vet school, I completed my master’s in Animal Biology at UC Davis and my undergraduate degree in Bioengineering at UC Santa Cruz.

Outside of school, I’m always hands-on—I love fixing up cars, running, shooting film photography, and surfing whenever I’m near the coast. I’m also the type of person who can’t pick just one favorite in vet med—I'm fascinated by internal medicine, cardiology, ophthalmology, and surgery! I love it all and enjoying keeping an open mind as I continue exploring.

Having been through the application process multiple times, I know how tough and overwhelming it can feel—but also how rewarding it is when your hard work finally pays off. My goal here is to help you confidently take your next step—whether that’s crafting your personal statement, building a strong application, or preparing for interviews. I’m excited to support you on this journey and can’t wait to celebrate your wins right alongside you.

Let’s make it happen!
