About

My name is Ellen Ijebor.I am a 17 year old freshman at california state university, I will be a sophomore in the fall of 2016. I am majoring in psychology which is something I am really passionate about especially originally being from a country, Nigeria, where psychology really isn't given any attention or regarded as important. This actually motivates me and drives me to want to be the best and succeed in all I do.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I intend to go on to get a Phd in clinical psychology and work in a hospital, private practice or a mental health care facility to gain experience. I would also love to eventually open my own practice.

Graduate school interests

I hope I will be able to get into a Doctorate program straight out of my undergraduate degree, I believe if I work hard and keep my grades up and be actively involved in different beneficial programs, I can achieve this. My dream school is University of California Los Angeles.I am working towards going there and I hope I do.

Outside the classroom

I have a wide array of hobbies which include; reading books, writing blog posts and inspirational pieces, listening to music, drawing , painting, traveling, singing and learning about psychology.
