“Earning a degree is important. For me, it’s also about the connections you gain while pursuing the degree.”

Graduating Class: 2019 Graduate
Hometown: Smithville, Missouri
Major: Animal science
Other Activities:
Addison transferred to Northwest from an NCAA Division I university to take advantage of the smaller class sizes, one-on-one attention from faculty and networking opportunities.
She is passionate about research and grateful for the hands-on experiences that allowed her to push herself to become a strong scholar and researcher. In fact, data she collected during a summer internship was presented by her professor during a webinar, and the study piqued the interest of a German scientist, who is now using the information she collected.
Because of the skills Addison developed through her coursework and internships, she gained a foundation for lifelong learning and the confidence to succeed in graduate school, preparing her to be career ready, day one.
