Clinical Counseling Intern

Currently pursuing a Master of Science (M.S.) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Merrimack College, anticipating graduating in May 2022. I devoted my undergraduate time to work at MCPHS University as a Peer Mentor and eventually was promoted to Senior Peer Mentor, founding the first annual Peer Mentor Advisory Board to help improve the program. In high school, I volunteered at the Connecticut Special Olympics. These positions have given me a variety of experience and training. I am currently working as a graduate fellow in the Office of Wellness Education at Merrimack College.
