Summary

I am an undergraduate student with aspirations of becoming a forensics scientist at the federal or state level, or in clinical psychology or criminal psych evaluation. Currently, I am trying to build up some more work experience in the forensics field to further my career


Strengths: I consider myself a leader and problem solver. I am proficient in math and science, have great people skills, and am a very empathetic individual. I am not afraid to ask others for help when I need it.


Weaknesses: I struggle with procrastination and set standards that are sometimes too high for me and not high enough for others. I am also afraid to make others disappointed in me.
