Need a break from real life?

Tonight’s guest is the definition of doing the most—in the best way possible.

Dasia Harris is a second-year veterinary student at NC State, a military reservist, an exotic animal enthusiast, and somehow also a full-time motivator on Instagram and TikTok. She’s breaking barriers, busting myths, and proving that there’s no single way to succeed in veterinary medicine.

Dasia doesn’t try to fit the mold.
