About
Hello everyone! My name is Emily and I am currently a Junior at Dominican University. I am a transfer student from Triton College, where I received my Associate's Degree. I am very goal and family oriented, and I drive to succeed. My passion is Psychology, and I want to use my degree to help troubled youth. My journey thus far has been challenging, but rewarding, and I am looking forward to what else is ahead of me!
