Academic Advisor, CUNY Justice Academy
BA, CUNY Lehman College

If I wasn't an Academic Advisor I would have been a policy advocate or owning my own practice as a therapist, school psychologist or industrial-organizational psychologist.

My major in college was Psychology and I chose it because I wanted to learn about human behavior and better understand how we think, act, and feel.

The top three life skills that I learned while in college are:
1) Time management.
2) Teamwork.
3) Seeking assistance when needed.

My favorite quote is:
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to change you is the greatest accomplishment. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

If my life had a theme song it would be Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield.
