Goals and interests

Career goal

I plan to be NICU social worker or work with post NICU support services. Upon completing my Masters I want to work with maternal mental health services, I learned from personal experience this is a very limited mental health field, making resources and specialized professionals hard to access.

Graduate school interests

I plan to continue my education for masters with Radford University
