What do you enjoy most about VT or your major? I love being a psychology major here at Virginia Tech because of all the amazing and endless opportunities that it has offered me. The psychology department at Virginia Tech is constantly offering experiences to learn and grow and discover so many possibilities upon graduation with a psychology degree!
What one piece of advice would you give to a potential transfer student? One piece of advice that I would give is to use your support system and resources. Transferring is hard and it is sometimes overlooked as a challenge, but know that there are so many amazing people and resources out there for you to utilize when navigating through this amazing experience.
What do you hope to be doing in ten years?
I hope that in 10 years I will have graduated with my master's degree and work for my dream company. I have always wanted to work for The Walt Disney Company as an I/O Psychologist and be able to live in Florida!
