We asked the members of the 2024-2025 Student Committee to answer some questions about themselves to help you get to know who they are and what they do. ![]() What is your school, program, and year? Florida School of Professional Psychology at National Louis University, Clinical Psychology PsyD Program, 4th year Why psychology and the law? Growing up, I discovered my ability to empathetically understand and connect to individuals in trouble with the law. I soon realized that the general public often has different views of people who have been in trouble with the law than I do! So, I found a career path in forensic clinical psychology where I can use my ability to help and connect with this underserved population as much as possible. What is your favorite thing about your current graduate program? My favorite thing is connecting with my peers who share the same passions as I do. If you were not in graduate school, what would you do? I would be a digital nomad traveling the world. What advice do you have for those applying to graduate school? Figure out who and what in your life brings you joy. Lean on those people and things throughout your graduate and professional career because they will be your lifeboat! If you had one year to train, what Olympic sport do you think you could qualify and medal in? I would love to say volleyball or track and field, but I could never make that happen in one year. So, I am going to have to go with archery. I have done archery a couple of times, and I think I could train for a year and be decent. Books or movies? Out of those two, I would pick movies. BUT if TV shows was an option I would definitely pick TV shows (specifically reality TV) If you could only watch 3 movies for the rest of your life, what would they be? The Blind Side, In Time, & The Other Woman What is your go-to road trip snack? Lime-Flavored Plantain Chips Does pineapple belong on pizza? Without a doubt, don't knock it till you try it Explain your hot take about pineapple on pizza. I grew up eating it, and a good Hawaiian pizza is my go-to pizza order! Add some red chili flakes and *chef's kiss* What is your favorite place you have ever traveled? While I am yet to be a world traveler, my so far favorite place to travel to is Salt Lake City, Utah! It has everything someone who enjoys nature could want (coming from a girl from Florida) Would you only eat hot food or cold food for the rest of your life? Why? I personally would have to say hot foods! Hot foods just taste so much better and have so much more flavor! What is your favorite weird fact? Dolphins have signature whistles for each other in their pod, similar to names humans have for each other
