Cecelia is currently a Grand Valley State University pre-vet biology student with a minor in Spanish, planning to graduate in the fall of 2021 and pursue veterinary school. Her love for animals started when she joined 4H as an explorer at the age of 5; Goats are what started it all, which then quickly blossomed to steers, rabbits, and sheep as well. Cecelia now maintains her own herd of around 20 Nubians and 6 Boer goats on her parents' 80-acre hobby farm in Cedar Springs. In her free time, Cecelia enjoys riding horses with friends, spending time outdoors, and helping local 4H and FFA groups [citation].
