Summary

I graduated from the University of Mount Union in May (2024) with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a minor in Sports Business. Playing college basketball at my undergraduate school has taught me some of the most important lessons in my life, such as hard work, dedication, and mental toughness. I am currently attending graduate school for my Master's Degree in Social Work at The Ohio State University. My experience working in a nursing home has made me a very compassionate and caring person. I also completed an internship at the country's second largest pediatric hospital, Nationwide Children's Hospital. There, I was able to touch the lives of those with autism, build relationships, and learn necessary psychology skills while shadowing therapy sessions. My experience, education, and passion to help others and give back to the community will help me excel wherever the future leads me.
