Background: I'm a
first year graduate student in the clinical psychology program. I
graduated in 2002 from Oklahoma
State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. I am also a former fellow of the American Indians Into Psychology (AIIP) Summer Enrichment Program. I currently work in the AIIP office and am still very much involved with the program.
Clinical Interests: My Clinical interests include working with adolescents and adults in prevention and intervention concerning substance abuse and depression. I want to work with underrepresented populations, preferrably in a tribal or Indian Health Service setting.
