Little did I know that I would fall in love with Philosophy and Psychology. These majors provide me with the tools to articulate my passion for social justice causes in terms of cohesive arguments. They give me the opportunity to theorize and think critically about the world around me; question ideas and daily encounters; approach knowledge through different perspectives; and practice applying logic, reasoning, and empathy in the context of today. I am incredibly grateful for all of my classroom experiences. Since I have the opportunity to study and write about causes that regularly impact people, it seems senseless to not include these academic writings and analyses on this site.
