Laura Jones

Majoring in Psychology
Trevecca Nazarene University, Class of 2019
From Jackson, TN

I am a full time mother, student, and employee. I work in the optometry field and enjoy the different experiences that occur from day to day. I chose Psychology because I have a strong interest in the mind and how it works and why we do what we do. I want to eventually obtain my Doctorate in Psychology and would like to work in the mental health field and work with research in regards to treatment plans for individuals with mental health issues. I also enjoy the cognitive aspect of Psychology. I enjoy singing, Church, traveling, and spending time with my family and friends. I also love quotes. "It is your reaction to adversity, not the adversity itself, that determines how your life's story will develop."-Elder Uchtdorf.
