Megan recently took the Animal Training and Care course at Unity College with Bonnie Gulas-Wroblewski.
"My name is Megan McGill and I am 30 years old. I am a New Jersey native, but currently live in Florida with my boyfriend, Todd. I am pursuing an undergraduate degree in Animal Health and Behavior with a concentration in Marine Biology and Sustainable Aquaculture. This is my third degree and a career change for me. Prior to starting at Unity, I moved down to Florida to be a pastry chef for banquets and weddings at the Walt Disney World resort. However, during the pandemic, I got furloughed and this gave me time to take a step back and see that I was not following my dreams. So with the support of my boyfriend (and puppy), I decided it was time to follow my dream of helping animals.
I chose to get my second Bachelor’s degree at Unity because they are truly passionate about helping both the environment and the animals that live there. I currently work as an animal keeper at an exotic animal preserve and have the responsibility of taking care of over 100 different animals daily. I wanted to make sure that I could continue to work there and do all of my classes online at the same time. Unity had so many different and interesting courses to choose from.
I have recently finished the Animal Training and Care course with Professor Bonnie Gulas-Wroblewski. Working at an animal sanctuary allowed me to provide real-life examples in my assignments and allowed me to have in-depth discussions with my fellow classmates. Professor Gulas-Wroblewski provided me with tons of new ideas and enrichment to do with the animals at my work. She was always available to answer any question that I had whether it was about the class or just about real-life situations. I have learned so much from Professor Gulas-Wroblewski and I cannot thank her enough. "
