Upon graduation, I will be working part-time for UMSSW as a research assistant for my awesome PI, Jay Unick, who I have been working with since the start of my time here. After the summer, I hope to work in an outpatient clinic or private practice as a mental health therapist. In the future, I anticipate returning for my PhD

Thank you first and foremost to my fiance, Sidney Tan, who has been completing the social work classes alongside me for the past 2 years. Doing this program with you has been the best experience. I have thoroughly enjoyed learning with you and starting our professional lives together. Thanks for being the best study buddy! I could not have done this without you!!
Thank yous also go out to my friends and family who have been a HUGE support emotionally, especially through the COVID-19 times. Love you guys so much!!
