SecretaryMadeline Lem
Hi everyone! My name is Maddie and I am very excited to be a part of the CPVMA executive team again this year! I am in my third year at the University of Guelph majoring in Animal Biology and this is my second year as the secretary for the CPVMA. I am a food enthusiast and have recently developed a love for bracelet making! In the future, I aspire to become a vet and work with exotic species and join the Veterinarians Without Borders team to aid animals in war torn countries and natural disaster zones.
