2020-2021     SAIN    Committee

Amber Best

Amber is one of our final year SAIN members.

She is very excited to be a part of such a fantastic group. Amber just graduated from an undergraduate degree in Animal Science from Dalhousie Agricultural Campus before coming to Glasgow. She is originally from Botwood, Newfoundland (Canada) where she has 4 cats, 3 horses and a husky that take up all her love and affection. She loves all creatures big and small but horses have a special place in her heart for sure and hopes to become an equine vet upon graduating. She also watches way too many crime shows and sci-fi/fantasy...

Emma is one of our final year SAIN members.

She has lived her entire life in California and since childhood has volunteered at a number of different animal clinics and organizations (even adopting a few pets along the way!). Ever since she could say the word dog she has wanted to be a vet, and is very passionate about the care of creatures both big and small. In her free time, she likes exploring the city, playing Quidditch, scuba diving, reading and settling in for movie nights with friends.

​ Abby is originally from Michigan, USA and this is her first time living abroad. She has been in love with Scotland ever since visiting as a teenager. Abby has a degree in Zoology from Michigan State University and has spent her time working in an animal shelter as a veterinary nurse and then as a veterinary clinic manager over the past 5 years. She has a strong interest in shelter and wildlife medicine and cannot wait to see where her veterinary journey takes her!

Robyn is one of our fourth year SAIN members.

​She was born and raised in Glasgow and has always had a soft spot in her heart for animals after growing up around yellow Labrador puppies! She began her journey at the vet school immediately after graduating from secondary school and looks forward to gaining the knowledge and experience on how to give animals the best quality of life possible. She has developed a particular fondness for guinea pigs and has 3 living with her at the moment! Some of her hobbies include going horse riding, dancing and playing games on her Xbox One.

Maya is one of our third year SAIN members.
​
She is from North Yorkshire and has an absolutely-crackers 15 years old Border Collie called Nellie – her favourite thing is unwrapping Christmas presents with her. She adores guinea pigs ever since getting one at age 7 (called Lucy) – surprisingly Lucy and Nellie got on extremely well.  She enjoys horse riding and working at her local stables, baking (her Lemon Drizzle cake is to die for) and walking. She has a keen interest in international animal welfare issues and will hopefully starting volunteering with the Trusty Paws Outreach programme very soon.

​Sarah is one of our second year SAIN members.

​​Sarah is from Richmond, Virginia and graduated from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville with a degree in French in 2016. Following graduation, she spent a summer as a zoo keeping intern before moving back to C'ville to work in shelter medicine. While at the SPCA she worked in the clinic and surgery, managed the shelter's feline wards, and frequently brought home foster cats and kittens. Her veterinary interests include shelter medicine, emergency medicine, and small animal surgery, with a particular love for her feline patients. Her two cats, Momo and Misty, are currently back home with her parents, but she hopes to start fostering with a Glasgow-based rescue soon. Outside of school she enjoys tennis, playing the harp, and trying to keep a sourdough starter alive in the cool Scottish climate.

She is born and raised in Glasgow and has had pets ranging from fish to hamsters to birds and cats growing up. She started at the Vet School right after finishing high school and is loving her time here learning and being around animals so far. She has a keen interest in marine mammal medicine but would like to explore all her options throughout the course and her veterinary career. In her free time she likes reading, swimming, listening to music and just chilling with pals.

Aoife is from Manchester and is so far loving her time in Glasgow. She has been volunteering for different animal charities for the past five years and is very excited to be part of a new one in her new home! In Manchester, Aoife loves horse riding, walking her slightly crazy rescue dog, Leah, reading and swimming. She started her veterinary journey in Glasgow fresh out of college and can’t wait to meet new people and have lots of exciting new experiences over the next five years.

Olivia is one of our first year SAIN members.
​
​Olivia is from Colchester in Essex. She is really excited to be part of the Glasgow SAIN committee. She has worked on a Therapy Farm Charity for the last two years (and she personally has a beautiful Labrador called Meg) so has experienced the incredible impact animals can have on peoples’ lives. She is not sure where veterinary medicine will take her, but currently has a keen interest in ethics, welfare and the protection of animals, especially those that are vulnerable and in need. She is looking forward to continuing work with a charity now that she is in Glasgow. In her spare time, she loves to swim, relax with friends and family or read a good book!
