Summary
The COVID-19 pandemic made me seriously consider a career in psychology because of all the struggling people around the world during that time. I learned through my own journey in life that what I wanted to do is help the less fortunate. This journey has solidified a passion for positively contributing to the well-being of others through psychological expertise.
