My passion in life is to help the broken people that we encounter in everyday life, from those we interact with at work to those we see on the streets. God calls his children to help all people and lead them to him, reference Matthew 28:16-20. Ultimately, my dream is to work at a non-profit organization; where I will be interacting with people from all walks of life, some being in emergency situations. A Human Service Counseling degree will equip me with training that I need to properly and effectively help these individuals; and heal some of their spiritual

This will increase my chances of being a successful Child Therapist. I am aware, prepared and committed to devoting my time towards my studies at Fordham University as well as taking advantage of all the necessary resources that Fordham University has to offer. My personal, academic and profession experience has given me the opportunity
The Human Service field can be challenging to people at times and rewarding as well in other moments of one’s career. What is the Human Services field exactly? According to the National Organization for Human Services they report that “the field of Human Services is broadly defined, uniquely approaching the goal of meeting human needs through an interdisciplinary knowledge base, focusing on prevention as well as remediation of problems, and maintaining a commitment to improving the overall quality of life of service populations” (NOHS, 2009).
I also have strong desires to serve others, including underserved populations. While serving at a homeless shelter Bowery Mission, I realized that the homeless usually need more help in health care but have inadequate access and limited medical knowledge. I am interested in working in in underserved areas as well as serving underserved populations because I can maximize my impact by fulfilling their needs.
Life is a journey paved with colorful experiences. Mine have lead me on a path to helping others. Continuing my education in a subject that I find fascinating has brought me incredible fulfilment. My goal is to complete The Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology program.
My interest in pursuing a doctorate degree in counseling psychology has been influenced by a combination of life experiences and an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. Though the path which has led me to this destination is complex, the journey has provided me with the clarity and insight necessary to understand human behavior from a holistic perspective. As I approach the completion of my masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I am faced with the unsettling realization that I have more questions than I do answers. This has fueled my innate desire and motivation to continue challenging myself by attaining a doctorate degree from the University of North Texas.

Learning is a continuous process and the day that you stop learning is the day that you start decreasing your rewards and lower levels of satisfaction. My ardent desire to acquire knowledge has motivated me to pursue higher studies at graduate level, and to take up a career in research in industry. I have taken this decision after carefully considering my academic background, profound interest in research and strong aptitude for problem solving.
My interest persisted and grew as I began to see how my efforts had the ability to improve the lives of people around me. I first noticed this on a personal level as friends would come to me for advice or for me to listen to their struggles and provide comfort. No matter how mundane, horrific, unique, or common the story was, I listened to them in a genuine and non-judgmental manner. I truly enjoyed hearing people’s stories and providing comfort and advice when needed. These moments helped me realize the power of simply being there for someone, and it increased my interest of pursuing a career where I can support those who need it most. I want to become a social worker so I can provide direction to those who may not be able to get it from other sources, just like I have done for various people throughout my life.
I am seeking a Master degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling-Military Families and Culture (MSCMHCMFCP) at Walden University Online program.
My mission in life is to counsel and advocate for others and I believe being a professional counselor will let me be able to be the most effective in helping people recover. To have a team to go out to rural areas and homes and counsel and pray for those who need help but for whatever reason struggle getting it. My experiences good or bad have made me humble, knowledgeable, cultured and compassionate. I truly believe god has put me in this position all my life and after careful consideration of my capabilities, my passion and my commitment, I believe counseling is to be my life’s mission. I will always seek to help others.
Ever since I could remember there has always been an inclination towards science. The desire to understand how things worked has always intrigued me. Set on the inclination I always explored the basic application of science i.e. building a lemon battery to designing a simple pulley lift at science fairs at school. Thus making Production Engineering a good option. It provides a strong engineering foundation and also educates on the management of an industry. This is the very reason I was able to decide that I wanted a career in this field.
Born to scientist parents and brought up in a society of scientists, I have always had an affinity towards science, in particular, the life sciences. While my childhood was spent dabbling in various activities, be it music, dance, sports, dramatics, quizzes or art, the one constant has always been my deep fascination with biology. This is what led me to choose biology and IT as my two high school specializations. The brief glimpse of what I got in my two years at high school left me in no doubt that Biotechnology Engineering was the field I wanted to pursue in my undergraduate studies. This helped me not only in exploring and understanding the research potential of this field, but also its industrial and commercial applications.
