Patience has loved animals from a young age and has always wanted to be a veterinarian, even though no one else in her family shares this dream. She currently has two pit bulls, Caesar and Kolby, who she has had for several years and helped save from an animal shelter. Saving Caesar in particular reinforced Patience's desire to become a veterinarian long-term in order to continue helping animals in need. Patience finds animals provide great companionship and help people in many ways, such as seeing eye dogs assisting the blind.
