I was born in Cortland, NY and grew up in Geneva, NY. I went to school in Geneva as well. I am a very passionate person when it comes to psychology and learning about how the mind works. I love to draw and travel when possible while still enjoying plenty of time at home with my puppy. I one day hope to travel across the country, if not the world, to see all of the different cultures out there. At the moment, I am Active Duty in the military as well as working towards benefitting those around me through the mental health industry, one person at a time. I enjoy my job quite a bit as a medical admin, getting to see the different types of individuals in the world. I do not enjoy arrogance but will still go out of my way to help those in need if possible. I was taught that a simple smile can change someone’s entire life, no matter the circumstances. I love learning how to do different things and have worked with computers quite a bit in my high school years, hoping to get better through more experience. I am commonly described as hardworking and a valued member of the team for the amount of effective and beneficial work I put into both jobs currently. I one day strive to continue to change the stigma on mental illness and therapy, allowing more individuals to feel comfortable getting the help they need. Hopefully one day, I will run my own practice after getting my PH.D!
