What would people be surprised to know about you?
People would probably be most surprised to know that I read almost entirely philosophy books.
Name a cause you are passionate about.
I’m most passionate about bringing skepticism back.
Why did you choose MSP?
MSP seemed like the best option for me based on the emphasis that the school puts on humanistic traditions.
What do you want to do with your degree?
With my degree, I plan to work with adults of all ranges, though. It is also a goal of mine to earn a doctorate in clinical psychology. This degree will help me work towards both goals.
How did you first get interested in the mental health profession?
My professor for abnormal psychology taught the course with an openness to alternate psychopathological explanations other than CBT. This style of teaching allowed me to view mental health as working with humans, not just brains, something that has obviously stuck with me.
