I chose Psychology because I’m passionate about helping people, especially children. I love to think philosophically and then take my thoughts and find ways to apply them. I’ve loved the Psychology program at Champlain! I enjoy the combination of hearing field stories from my professors with hands-on experience, even in the classroom. I like discussing case studies and reading different content that we not only discuss in class, but also criticize, as if we are part of the professional Psychology community.
My most rewarding project was a research assignment for my Research Methods & Analysis II course. It was a very difficult and time-consuming project, but I was able to choose my own topic, write a proposal, work with actual research to develop my skills in research psychology, perform testing on almost 200 participants, and then present it to other members of the Psychology community here at Champlain. I wouldn’t want to do it again, but it’s an experience I would never trade.
I work as a Resident Assistant on campus with sophomores, and I mentor first-year students through the Office of Diversity & Inclusion (ODI). My learning experiences in the classroom have helped me become more introspective and develop skills that help me reflect on who I am and understand what I need. Those skills have helped me to help others understand what they need, which allows me to connect students to the resources they need to lead them to success and health.
