People’s hobbies and interests shape the person they grow to be. Many consider hobbies as something to be outgrown or placed to the side as they reach adulthood. But others, take these hobbies and make them their life, and future. Bryce Clements is a sophomore with a passion for animals. He’s studied and cared for countless animals and has a goal of working with them for his career. 

“I first got interested in animals from watching my brother’s turtles and learning each of their personalities and I like to study random animals and learn how to take care of them,” Clements said. “I’m really interested in being a conservationist, field biologist, or a herp veterinarian, which is a veterinarian that specializes in the care of reptiles.”
