Goals and interests

Career goal

I am planning to become a school psychologist and/or educational diagnostician. I want to help make learning and teaching easier for students and teachers. I also want to make sure students with special needs are getting diagnosed and receiving the resources they need.

Outside the classroom

I have two main hobbies, drawing and writing.
My favorite hobby out of the two is drawing, and it is likely it's the hobby that I'm best at doing. I have been doing it since I could hold a pencil, and I'm mostly self taught. I particularly like to draw people and animals in pencil.
I also aspire to be a fictional writer. I suppose my second favorite hobby is actually creating stories and characters. I particularly like the fantasy genre with a touch of science fiction.
I have other hobbies as well like teaching myself how to speak languages, to play the piano, and yoga. I'm not fluent in these activities but they are fun as well.
