I truly believe that I will make a great social worker. I am tremendously emotionally mature, objective, and sensitive to people and their problems. I can handle responsibility, work independently, and maintain good working relationships with my clients and coworkers. I want the opportunity to make a positive impact on the society we live in. I am particularly interested in Child, Family, and Forensic social work. I love working with children and teenagers and firmly believe that proper attention and guidance in an individual’s childhood can help set him/her up to have a positive future. I also am very interested in working with children and teens in a school setting who are considered under privileged. I want to act as an advocate to make sure they receive the services and attention necessary to increase their quality of living.

I believe and expect that graduate school at Fordham University will be much more challenging than undergraduate. This is not only because the quality of work in an Advanced Program will be harder, but also because I will need to apply my theoretical knowledge to practical situations in my field placement. I think It is easier to contemplate what is wrong in society, but now in 2016 it is more challenging to go out and fight it. As a Social Worker I will be that person to change the world, because I will be apart of a profession that is grounded in pursuing social justice. I will have unique and privileged opportunities to assist people in claiming their rights and improve their circumstances. Within my graduate study, upon graduation from Fordham University, I hope to obtain my license and begin my future as a successful helping professional.

I love creative stories and poetry.
I enjoy reading novels, poetry, artwork.
Maintaining my school work load.
Most importantly, spending time with my loved ones, and a few close friends.
