Career

My current career goal is to become a Psychiatric Nurse Practioner. I am studying psychology for my undergraduate major, and I plan to apply to graduate-entry nursing programs and specialize in psychiatric care. I have been working towards this goal by completing prerequisite course work for graduate entry nursing programs such as anatomy, physiology, and nutrition to name a few. Starting in the spring 2o20 semester, I have been working in a Health Psychology lab at Ohio State with Principle Investigator Dr. Charles Emery. Working in the Cardiopulmonary Behavioral Medicine Lab has given me valuable experiences that highlight the connection between physical well-being and psychology. I have been lucky enough to volunteer at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio in the Seidman Cancer Center. Both of these experiences have exposed me to aspects of a career in Psychiatric Nursing, and I hope to continue both of these experiences in my next two years at Ohio State.
