Summary
As an Applied Science major in Psychology, I bring a unique and competitive blend of scientific knowledge, interpersonal acumen, and data-driven thinking. Through coursework in behavioral science, psychopharmacology, research methods, and statistic, I’ve developed the ability to translate complex scientific information into accessible, persuasive messaging – an essential skill when educating healthcare providers and negotiating sales. I thrive in fast-paced, target-driven environments and pride myself on being both analytical and emotionally intelligent. My ability to connect with diverse individuals, backed by a solid understanding of clinical and organizational psychology, makes me a strong candidate to drive product adoption and build long-term client relationships.
