I chose my major because mathematics was something I have always been interested in and wanted to know more about. The major has allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts and make connections with the mathematics I learned in high school.
Through the political science program, I learned how to work in a team environment and work collaboratively with my peers. I also honed my writing skills which collectively allowed me to thrive in my internship and will allow me to succeed in my fellowship role in Sacramento.
The Cal Lutheran Pre-Med track provided a solid background of information that I could depend on and a great backing for entering the medical field this year. I know I will continue to use this knowledge even once I start medical school. The psychology major gave me so much context on how to treat people well. Having a background in Psychology will make me a better doctor who remains in tune with her patients.
The psychology program set me up for success in my career through a blend of academic rigor and practical experience. Minoring in sociology significantly aided me in my studies and career path by providing a deeper understanding of society and its impact on individuals.
I picked this program because of the amazing opportunity to be in central London while not only studying but also getting an opportunity to work in a completely different society and country.
I love how diverse the multimedia industry is, there are so many different opportunities, whether it’s graphic design, animation production, or beyond. After graduation, I will be focused on exploring a wide range of opportunities within the creative industry and work as a Production Assistant for Blur Studio. Ultimately, my goal is to make a meaningful impact through my work, whether it’s in graphic design or animation production.
English can be a great stepping stone for many potential careers in law, education, writing, publishing, and more. I would also advise most people who are studying within non-business-related fields to at least pick up a business minor to diversify themselves as a job applicant.
In both physics and computer science, I particularly enjoyed delving into research projects that allowed me to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world problems. Overall, the combination of hands-on research opportunities, engaging classes, and supportive faculty made my experience at Cal Lutheran truly rewarding and memorable.
To say I lived and studied in Japan while working on my minor in Asian studies I feel strengthens the potency of that minor compared to many classmates also studying in this field which could really benefit me should I choose to utilize this experience in a future career goal.
Connecting my love of being in tune with myself, as well as understanding how to share love with others, I realized helping people through their sensuality struggles, emotionally, mentally, and physically is my calling in life.
