M.S./C.A.S., School Psychology

Profession:

Academic Professional Lecturer, Faculty at the University of Wyoming (UW).

After working as a school psychology specialist in the Forrest City School District (Forrest CIty, Ark.), I am now supervising assessment and child treatment cases in the clinic at the University of Wyoming, where I also teach graduate-level assessment in the pyschology department. 

The faculty in Niagara's school pyschology program really helped me to foster an appreciation for evidence-based practice and to stay current in the fields of education and psychology. The professors were (and still are!) always available for guidance whenever it's needed.

Once I was out in the field, I really appreciated how much more knowledge I had gained during my graduate school career. I wouldn't want my degree from anywhere else and I model my current teaching after the practices used at NU!
