I graduated from The University of Nevada, Reno and received my bachelor’s degree in HDFS and a minor in Psychology. After graduation, I moved to beautiful British Columbia, Canada for an 18-month service mission where I was able to interact with a variety of people and cultures. I am a second-year graduate student in the HDFS MS program at The University of Nevada, Reno where I’ve had the opportunity to teach and assist in courses and participate in research to prepare me for my future career. After I graduate, I hope to become a Certified Family Life Educator and work in higher education so I can continue teaching and doing research on what the best developmental practices are for individuals and families. |
