  • Senior, Psychology major

I am honored to have been invited to join Phi Beta Kappa. The time I have spent at UWM has been rewarding. I am a second-semester junior and am set to graduate in the Spring of 2025 with a psychology major and a criminal justice minor. So far, my favorite experience at UWM has been being a part of the Honors College, where I discovered my love for writing poetry, which has been a newfound passion of mine. I would like to thank the Honors College faculty, especially Dr. Southward. I would also like to thank the Psychology department faculty and my academic advisor, Jennifer DeRoche, for all the help they have provided up until this point.

I am unsure exactly what my future holds, but I am excited about the possibilities. So far, I plan to continue pursuing professional experiences outside of the classroom that will help me enter a master’s program in counseling. I also wish to continue developing my poetry and drawing skills.
