Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Post-graduation career plans: graduate school for clinical psychology

Bio: I am a non-traditional 27-year-old undergraduate with a full-time career. My aspirations are to get my doctorate in Clinical Psychology and open my own transitional living unit for previously trafficked and homeless youth with on-site psychological resources and educational services. I have a lovely partner Sachi and a service dog, Guinness, who comes to campus with me. I navigate a rigorous full-time career of working night shift managing 60 folks and projects, going to school full time, and keeping up with the external commitments and volunteering that I do.
