Academic Path: I explored careers I found interesting throughout elementary and high school, from astronaut to accountant. These careers were prevented by motion sickness and a dislike for constant, overwhelming mathematics. By high school graduation I decided upon psychology because I find humankind's thoughts and behaviors so intriguing. My desire was to earn my Ph.D. in Neurobiology and perform research on male and female brain differences. Instead I happily focused on College Student Development, which has led me to Student Advising Services. I believe everyone has a mixture of gifts, talents, and skills they can combine to find true happiness in their niche in society and my mixture has led me to student advising.
