Compassionate and dedicated Honors College student graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology in May, recognized for academic excellence with an honors laureate distinction. Extensive experience in high-pressure customer service roles has honed my communication, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills, which are vital for effective clinical counseling. Passionate about understanding and supporting diverse populations, I aim to apply my psychological knowledge and empathetic approach to foster resilience and well-being in clients. I am seeking to further develop my skills and knowledge through a master's program in clinical counseling.
