What would people be surprised to know about you? I think people would be surprised that I am a cat mom! I adopted my cat, Kirby, three years ago from a rescue shelter.

What is a cause you’re passionate about? I am very passionate about giving to those in need. I am a member of a non-profit organization called All In. We are relatively new, however, we aim to help low-income families.     

Why did you choose to attend MSP? MSP’s values align closely with my values. It was important to find a school that follows the humanistic perspective. Ultimately, I chose MSP because of the strong sense of community at this school. Faculty members seem to create a warm, welcoming environment and really care about the success of their students.

What do you want to do with your degree/certificate?

After I graduate from the MA program, I want to start working at a private practice primarily with children that are struggling emotionally.
