Post-Doctoral Intern

Personal Statement:
I am thrilled to be the post doctoral intern at Texas A&M this year. I have always been drawn to working with college students of all ages, backgrounds and cultures. I appreciate the many transitions, challenges and excitement that one encounters as a college student. I believe in helping people realize their full potential and in accentuating the positive to work through areas of growth. I love what I do and consider it an honor to serve the people who walk through my door.

Things that bring me joy are gourmet eating (notice I didn't say cooking), travel and things that are pink! And most of all love the chance to have quality time with friends or family.
