Goals and interests

Career goal

I plan to work in the field as an LCSW, providing substance use therapy. I also intended to explore drug education (K-12), psychedelic- assisted treatment for mental health and substance use, and possibly delve into policy work/advocacy.

Graduate school interests

My graduate school interests are to network, finish strong, and spend most of my time focusing on my intended job path and pursuing my interest in drug education and psychedelic-assisted treatments.

Outside the classroom

I enjoy spending time outdoors and with friends and family. I like to fish, hunt, camp and my inner child comes out when I get to look for arrowheads. I also enjoy skateboarding, cooking, drawing, and creating art. I am an amateur history buff and my favorite genres or music are metal, EDM, funk, and country.
