As a dedicated and passionate non-traditional student, I recently graduated Cum Laude with a BA in Psychology and am currently pursuing my Master's of Science in Psychology with a concentration in Professional Counseling Psychology. My academic journey has been enriched by my unique perspective and life experiences, which have deepened my commitment to creating and fostering inclusive and accessible mental health services.I am particularly interested in engaging in research that addresses the needs of underserved populations and contributes to the advancement of mental health practices. My goal is to leverage my academic background and skills to make a meaningful impact in the mental health field. I actively seek opportunities that allow me to support mental health advocacy, research, and clinical practice, focusing on roles that directly assist underserved communities. I aim to combine my knowledge of psychology with my communication skills to promote well-being and enhance access to mental health resources.
