About
I am currently attending South University where I am working toward my Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I currently have a 3.8 GPA. Courses I tend to favor are developmental psychology, aging, mental health, and human behavior. I am an adoptive mother of an autistic child and enjoy advocating for others. I also volunteer with R.A.G.E. (Residents Association of Greater Englewood) and try to get involved with ways to empower and enhance my community. I work as a Medical Biller and Front Desk Receptionist for Radius Foundation. We work with patient services, medical billing, and front desk operations. I plan on working in the behavioral health/social services field while going to graduate school.
