About
Hello there! My name is Jennie Ridgeway-Herrick! I am a Senior Psychology Major. I'm concentrating my studies on child and adolescent development and behavior. This subject really became a passion for me when my best friend was blessed with two daughters who are Autistic. It's my hope to one day be able to figure out how the mind of an autistic child works well enough that the child and their family can learn to communicate effectively with one another.
