My name is Emily Daugherty and I’m originally from Warren, Ohio. I am a third year social work major with minors in youth development and dance. In my career I want to focus on working with children and adolescents. I am currently planning on getting my master’s degree and becoming a school social worker. My experience working with children and adolescents includes teaching dance classes, working with the Boys and Girls club, and being a camp counselor. These experiences have influenced my research interests for this class. I don’t have a specific topic yet, but some areas I am interested in are education, children affected by HIV/AIDS, children with disabilities, and dance therapy.
