About

I am a student at University of Houston-Victoria, I have earned my Bachelors' and now working on my Masters' for Psychology. I am interested in personality assessment and or counseling students to advance from high school into college. I would love to show them the benefits of going to college and how its beneficial for the rest of their lives. Now for personality assessments that is really exciting to figure out someone's personality. Both fields are very impressive to look forward, for an occupation.

Goals and interests

Career goal

My job path I am not to sure yet but it will be within the boundaries of counseling students coming out of high school to enter college. Then there is a personality assessment, both are very interesting. Once I am more involved with my Masters' studies I will decide.

Graduate school interests

Of course my main interests were classes in psychology. I would have liked to join into club and such but I had to take care of my Dad who had Alzheimer and took a lot of my time. I enjoyed all my classes, one in particular which was the Abnormal psychology. I found it fascinating how the mind when is not healthy works. It's like the brain has its own universe to still explore.

Outside the classroom

floral arrangements, organize and decorate weddings,and baby showers. I also refurbish furniture, paint walls, crafts for children and love to read.
