Stephanie Young, a senior animal science major in the Texas A&M University College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, turned from a student to a CEO after developing a lifesaving vitals monitoring device for pets, called SKYPaws. Young used her knowledge gained through opportunities provided to her as a Texas A&M student to partner with Brianna Armstrong, DVM, a recent graduate from Texas A&M’s College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences and former animal science student, to invent a tool they hope will help veterinarians change their level of care for animals pre- and post-surgery.
