My dream is to be a clinical mental health counselor!
I built my whole college experience around a plan to go to graduate school right after I completed my bachelor’s degree in psychology. Achieving that dream has been filled with challenges and many ups and downs.
You see, I have dyscalculia, a math learning disability. This disability requires me to be an advocate for myself in both school and life.
