Azia Papillon, Regional Engagement and Research Intern
Azia Papillon is Best Friend’s new Regional Engagement and Research Internship intern. She currently resides in Chicago, Illinois where she lives with her family and rescue pup of 5 years, Luna “Beans” Papillon. She recently received a Bachelor of Science in Animal Sciences from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where she fell in love with animal care and research.
She’s loved animals for as long as she can remember, showing care and compassion through dog sitting/walking and attendant jobs as well as a medical lab internship with the Champaign County Humane Society this past fall! She’s so excited to delve into this side of animal welfare and experience her next chapter in saving lives!
