After graduating college from Georgia College and State University in the spring of 2011, I accepted a job teaching English in China. I left Atlanta, GA on September 4th, 2011 and I returned on July 9th, 2012.
After teaching English in China, I received a Fulbright Scholarship for an English Teaching Assistantship (ETA) through the U.S. Department of State. My additional project while in Mongolia was researching family and cultural values. I traveled to Mongolia on August 7th, 2012 and I returned to America on June 9th, 2013.
I was accepted into the University of South Dakota's PhD program for Clinical Psychology in 2013. After 5 years, I graduated from the University of South Dakota in the summer of 2018, after completing my residency in Dayton, Ohio as a Captain in the USAF. Following that, the Air Force moved me to Texas and I became a licensed Clinical Psychologist.
I'm currently living in Abilene, Texas.
