OBJECTIVE
To obtain a degree in Psychology, with the intention of working as a Child Psychologist.

SUMMARY
Student at the nationally ranked Townview Magnet Center in Dallas, TX. Interested in majoring in
Psychology because I enjoy understanding how a persons mind works and what causes them to
behave the way they do. Bilingual in English and Spanish with an advanced literacy level in
Spanish. Received certifications in MS Word 2013, and MS Excel, demonstrating mastery in these
computer skills with only six hours of training. Completed nine training modules and deemed
financially literate by Everfi. Aside from these accomplishments, I continue to improve as a student
at the Yvonne A. Ewell Townview Magnet Center by taking rigorous courses and being part of
recognized societies/organizations such as National Honor Society, International Service Learning
Adventures Club, and Vice President of the National Math Honor Society.
