Why did you choose to attend UE’s PsyD program over other graduate/doctoral programs?

I chose UE because a lot of my family has graduated from UE, and it is a great school.

What advice would you share with students going through the college search for graduate/doctoral programs?

Never give up! Maintain good relationships with your professors!

Why do you recommend UE?

I would recommend UE because of the small class sizes, they make it feel more personal.

Hobbies:

I am a true crime junkie, and I love playing board games with my family! I also really enjoy taking walks outside and spending time with my children.
