About

When I was a Junior in High School i participated in the Running Start Program. I graduated High School with my Associates Degree in Biology. A month after I graduated High School I shipped off to Basic Training for the Army. After that I headed to my Advanced Individual Training school for my job in the military. Once I graduated both of those schools I continued my education at Washington State University. Here at WSU I am a full time student as well as a Soldier in the Army Reserves.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I am currently a contracted Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (AROTC) Cadet. I plan on commissioning as an officer in May of 2018 when I graduate. I am hoping to become a helicopter pilot in the Army then once I am done flying, go back to college and go to graduate school for clinical psychology. Once I become a therapist, I want to work with Military Personnel with PTSD and work with families who have a loved one currently on deployment or a loved one who is going through PTSD or other mental health issues. As currently being in the military, I want to help out my brothers and sisters get through their hard times as well as help their families. Most people don't realize that the family of a military member goes through so much and gives up a lot of their life as well. They get over looked yet they need just as much help and support as those who are serving our country.

Graduate school interests

I plan on going onto Grad School and get my Masters Degree so I can become a licensed therapist. I want my main focuses to be in PTSD as well as family counseling.

Outside the classroom

While being a full time student and Army ROTC being very time demanding, I don't have a whole lot of free time to enjoy my hobbies. My current hobbies include being on a co-ed intramural flag football team as well as the Air Rifle Commander for AROTC. I enjoy playing with my bunny as well as reading when I have time to myself at home.
