Graduate Study Objective
Throughout my life, I have realized that many of my relatives and friends are struggling with
neurological and physiological disorders. A few of them have even lost their lives to the battle. Due
to these experiences, I have become a compassionate, solutions-oriented undergraduate dedicated to
expanding my education by receiving my Masters in Clinical Psychology in order to help people cope
with their underlying conditions.
