About

My name is Courtney Covert and I am from rural Ohio. I am a 2015 graduate with a degree in Psychology. Currently, I am working on my master's in Clinical Psychology with a duel specialization in Forensic Psychology and Applied Research. Post graduation, I worked as an investigative caseworker for child welfare. I am currently working as a clinical research professional at Cincinnati Children's Hospital. I gained a lot of experience through casework but research is ultimately what I want to do; specifically forensic research. I will graduate with my master's in December 2017 and continue on to my doctorate.
