Education
- Psychology
Took several Psychology classes with only short of a few classes of receiving my degree. I was doing online courses and my mother had just passed away when dropped out. I was working as a nurse and didn’t want to give up my nursing degree to go into Psychology. My Psychology classes have been very beneficial in my current job at the jail.
