Bridget Barnes

 Hi there! My name is Bridget. I’m currently a senior at UW-Madison, studying Pharmacology and Toxicology as well as Biology! 

I grew up in Sauk City, a small town 45 minutes away from Madison, best known as the home of the first ever Culver’s (which is one of 

my favorite restaurants)!

Growing up, I’ve had many different pets, including hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, birds, fish, cats, and dogs! I’ve always had a passion for animals. From a young age, I was sure that I would be a veterinarian. I have also always thought that it would be really cool to work with wild animals and nature. Since attending college, I and now unsure of what I would like to do when I graduate. There are so many different paths I could take with my major, it’s hard to choose! But, there’s one thing I know 

for sure: I’d love to work with animals or nature in some capacity.

During my free time, I enjoy hiking, being in nature, biking, swimming, disc golfing, and cuddling with my cat, Kitty. I also like collecting house plants, most notably cacti and succulents!

Fun fact: We don't see hedgehogs here but Alaina was nice enough to lend Romeo to me when my cat was too fearful to visit the clinic!
