My name is Sierra, and I am originally from Lincoln, but I also lived in Ogallala for about ten years. Currently, I am halfway through a double major in Psychology and Gender Studies and Nebraska Wesleyan University. I hope to one day get a job as some kind of counselor, though I am unsure of what exactly I want to do with my future degree right now. Currently, I work full-time as an assistant manager for Tip Top Tux in Omaha, which is decent, but I miss being a barista at Starbucks. At the moment, I am trying to get back into the swing of college, so I am taking some online classes while I continue working.

I work quite a bit, but in my free time, I enjoy reading, primarily fiction, and watching my favorite shows and movies on Netflix. On the weekends, my boyfriend and I enjoy going dancing at Latin nights. One of my favorite things to do, even though I am far away from the mountains now, is going hiking. My boyfriend and I actually just got back from seeing Rise Against live at Red Rocks, and we snapped this photo on the quick hike we took beforehand.

Mostly what I hope to take away from this class is the fundamentals of the human services field and a better understanding of basic human services career paths. Right now, I am searching for a job that would be more related to my interests and passions, but I need a stronger educational foundation in order to start building some experience! I also want a better idea of what is out there for me to do.

Aside from being halfway through a bachelor's degree in psychology, my experience in the field of human services is rather limited. However, I did spend a year volunteering for Voices of Hope answering calls on their Crisis Line for about a year. I typically worked overnights, and, though it was sometimes difficult, mostly because there were a lot of problems that I was neither able to nor qualified to solve completely, it was extremely rewarding.

I may have run out of things to talk about regarding myself, but, like any true cat parent, I could never resist an opportunity to show off my fur baby. This is Kevin, my very large three-year-old angel. I adopted him from a bride and groom my future-coworker/current-friend had worked with, and I do not know where I would be without him! We are both very excited to become experts on what the field of human services is all about. Also, he owes me a thank you for posting a nice picture of him instead of the one where he got his head stuck in a glass.
