It was a desire that Huynh shared: after all, she wanted to become a veterinarian, which required going to college. “They want me to be educated and financially secure.” “They expected me and all of my other siblings to go to college and live a better life than they did,” she said. Her parents immigrated from Vietnam and Nicaragua, respectively, and although they didn’t finish high school, they wanted their children to attend college.
In addition, UC Davis also offers students the option to enroll in the doctor of veterinary medicine (DVM) program simultaneously – something that Huynh plans to apply for.Ī graduate of Da Vinci Design public charter art school in El Segundo, Huynh’s academic achievements are the fulfillment of her family’s hopes and dreams.
UC Davis has awarded her a $100,000 fellowship for the first two years of her program. She will attend UC Davis in the fall, where she will enroll in a doctoral program in pharmacology and toxicology. On May 24, Huynh will graduate from the Huntley College of Agriculture at Cal Poly Pomona with a bachelor’s degree in animal science.
“I always liked medicine, and I thought that I can combine the two interests and pursue a veterinary career.” “Since I was always surrounded by animals, I knew I wanted to work with them,” she said. It may come as no surprise, therefore, that Huynh’s dream was to become a veterinarian. They had dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, a chinchilla, and axolotls – a veritable menagerie. Growing up in Hawthorne, Vivian Huynh and her family had many pets.
