Brieann Lower Email and Phone Number

Growing up, when someone would ask me what I want to do with life, I would always respond with, "I want to make a difference". The problem was, I did not know how. I used to imagine being a super hero and helping save people, but once I got older, I realized that was not logical for obvious reasons. Then, one year it hit me. I knew how I could make a difference in people's lives. The fact of the matter was, I loved talking to people when they were upset. I loved making people feel better. So, I started looking into being a psychologist. Any time we'd get to pick research topics in school, I always did mine on mental disorders. I was fascinated in learning why people behaved in specific ways and what the causes could have been for them developing these disorders.Not only did it fascinate me learning about the different mental disorders, but it also made me feel good because I realized that becoming a psychologist meant that I would be able to make a difference. Therefore, I have shifted my focus onto becoming a psychologist. I can not wait to continue expanding my knowledge about how the brain works, but most importantly, I can not wait to make a difference.
