About

I’m pursuing my B.S. in Psychology at Western Governors University, and I am passionate about mental health, human behavior, and creating meaningful change. I’ve worked with diverse populations, including at-risk youth and high-pressure clients, where empathy, active listening, and problem-solving were essential. I’m interested in roles that allow me to support mental well-being, advocate for underserved communities, and apply psychology principles in practical, compassionate ways. In the long term, I hope to contribute to mental health services, counseling, research, and advocacy. Let’s connect, especially if you're in the psychology, counseling, behavioral health, or nonprofit space!

What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role that allows me to combine my strengths in customer service, organization, and communication while continuing to grow professionally. I'm currently pursuing my B.S. in Psychology with the long-term goal of becoming a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, so I'm very interested in opportunities to support others, whether in healthcare, behavioral health, education, or community-focused organizations. I enjoy roles that are structured, collaborative, and people-centered.
