About
I am currently a doctoral student taking my Comprehensive Exam. I am looking forward to obtaining my PhD in General Psychology with a Specialization in Teaching and Instruction. I have chosen this route as a way to put both my loves of psychology and teaching to use by teaching psychology at the undergraduate level. I have been teaching as an Adjunct Faculty Professor for almost three years now and I enjoy every semester with new students and new course assignments. When I am not a student or professor, I am working as an Executive Administrative Assistant for Tom James and a work study for Capella University. My goal is to become a full tenured professor one day.
