Whether it’s neuroscience research, neurology, or patient care- I want to help other people struggling with seizures and with epilepsy. I want to be part of the reason someone gets to live a healthier life.

Not only will I be able to fully access healthcare in the state of Colorado, I will be able to study in one of the most beautiful places with the best air quality in the state. Great for my asthma issues!

While growing up with epilepsy can be scary, it forced me to gain an advanced knowledge of my brain at a young age. This, I’ve always been interested in how the mind and body work.
By studying Behavioral Science, I can gain an understanding of the body and mind which can help in my long term goals to becoming a neurologist.

As much as I hate to admit it, the Art had to come first. I had to be able to afford college, let alone a future. With my past career in Photography, I can afford graduate school, and a future in a place where I am free to actively contribute to my community through the fields of Addiction therapy, neuroscience research, and neurology.

I want to learn from a studying Behavioral science at a graduate level, how to best approach and communicate with patients. I want to be the reason a patient is willing to step outside of their comfort zone and explore new treatment methods- or just the reason they felt was stubborn enough to not give up. I want to help other patients like myself, whether it’s with addiction or neurological disorders- to see that they are so much more than their diagnoses. No matter what odds they face, I want to be their reminder that they are worth their fight.

If I can study behavioral science at this school, I can hopefully gain a better understanding of the human body and mind. I can then use this knowledge to attend a medial or PhD program in neuroscience & neurology to work full time in patient care or research.

One thing I can do to keep a clear head while I study and work is kayak & paddle board on any of the many and beautiful lakes or rivers I will be near. Here’s a photo I took while kayaking Lake Estes.
