My name is Emma Quade. I graduated from the University of Central Florida in Spring 2026 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology in the Burnett Honors College with a minor in Environmental Studies and an Undergraduate Research Certificate. I followed the Pre-Veterinary track throughout undergraduate school and worked as a Veterinary Technician for two years at an animal hospital. At UCF I was a part of the Coastal Estuarine and Ecology Lab under Dr. Linda Walters and worked as a Restoration Technician restoring oyster reefs in the Indian River Lagoon. During this time I completed my Honors Undergraduate Thesis with Dr. Linda Walters as my faculty mentor. I will be starting Veterinary School at the University of Florida, as a part of the class of 2030, in the Fall 2026 semester.
