Kyra is originally from Tallahassee, Florida and currently attends NC State University in Raleigh, North Carolina where she will be graduating in May of 2023. She attended Florida State University in Tallahassee for her Bachelor of Science with minors in chemistry and entrepreneurship.
Growing up, Kyra knew she wanted to be a veterinarian, but what really solidified it was an opportunity to shadow a veterinarian at a general practice for one of her high school courses. “I fell in love with it at that point, and I didn’t turn back,” she said. Kyra is excited to get more exposure to the general practice side of veterinary medicine and observe some surgeries while she is here at Craig Road Animal Hospital.
In her spare time, Kyra has been doing more reading lately, and has enjoyed reading some of the books that are being made into upcoming films, such as Where the Crawdads Sing. She also enjoys going on hikes with her boyfriend and spending time with her two pets, a dog named Koa and a tortie point Siamese cat named Nala.
