Majoring in Psychology, Minoring in Criminal Justice
Southern New Hampshire University, Class of 2027
From Vernon Rockville, CT

I am currently pursuing my degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice at Southern New Hampshire University. After 20 years away from the classroom, I returned to further my understanding of human behavior, especially in relation to justice and fairness. With 25 years of experience as a paralegal in real estate and foreclosure law and as the owner of a boutique real estate brokerage in Connecticut, I bring a unique perspective to my studies. My background has sharpened my insight into human interactions, negotiation, and advocacyskills I aim to apply in future work focused on criminal justice, re-entry, and trauma-informed care. Beyond academics, I am passionate about helping others, growing both personally and professionally, and enjoying life with my two dogs, Lincoln and Sugarbear, who bring joy and balance to my journey.
