Makenzy Bowerman

College Academy at Broward College alumna Makenzy Bowerman is dedicating her career to animal care and conservation.

A graduate of the University of Central Florida, she earned a Bachelor degree in Zoology and Animal Biology. While at UCF, she gained hands-on experience in animal conservation through an incredible internship in South Africa, where she further developed her passion for wildlife preservation. 

In addition to obtaining her degree, she works as an animal caretaker at SeaWorld for their animal show, where she cares for a wide variety of animals, including camels, alpacas, goats, pigeons, and even a zebu! This role follows her previous work at Universal Studios Hollywood as an animal caretaker for the Animal Actors show, giving her even more experience working with diverse species.

We are so proud of her dedication to animal care and conservation, and we cannot wait to see what the future holds as she graduates and pursues a career in this field.
