I am a Psychology B.S. graduate from The University of Southern Mississippi currently expanding my skill set in human services at the Division of Medicaid. As a Benefit Specialist, there are daily opportunities to empathize and engage with at-risk clients in order to overcome barriers. I have consistently exceeded deadline expectations while managing multiple caseloads and am acknowledged for continued patience and self-initiative. I am an intern for the USM Social Work Department's TGNC research project with the goal to increase awareness for the needs of this vulnerable population in MS. As a board member at The Spectrum Center, which supports the LGBTQIA community, I aid in the planning and execution of community events and spread a call to action for social activism. Additionally, I am collaborating with a member at the Counseling Associates in Hattiesburg to create an LGBTQIA training specifically for Counseling practitioners. I am currently looking for Psychology-related work experience and have future plans to pursue Counseling licensure.
