About

I am in the final stretch of completing my Masters in Criminal Justice. My intent is to continue on for a Doctorate in Forensic Psychology. The law and Psychology has always been an interest of mine, and my desired focus would be on juveniles and mental health, trying and sentencing juveniles in adult courts, and reintegration of juveniles who have spent significant time in some form of detention.
