Shakeema doesn’t want to sit on the sidelines while crime ravages her neighborhood in the Bronx. She wants to put a stop to it by becoming a forensic scientist, helping to make sure her community is safe.
Being at Johns Hopkins was one of the most eye-opening experiences of my life. I was often pushed out of my comfort zone and it helped me grow so much as a person. I made so many new friends that I still keep in contact with, and my professor was one of the most amazing teachers I've ever had. The trips were awesome: we went to a mental health clinic, a sleep disorders clinic, a detention center, and many more places. The workload was not as difficult as I expected it to be, but of course that was only after I learned how to manage my time. Johns Hopkins University has such a warm environment and I never wanted to leave. At the end of those two weeks nobody wanted to leave, but it definitely was an experience to remember. I am now considering a career in forensic psychology! Thank you!
In the Discover Hopkins Program, I wish to learn social skills that will help me adapt to college and become an independent person. I also wish to learn the essentials of being a forensic psychologist so that I can make sure that this is the career I really want to pursue. I am most excited about getting the chance to meet new people who are interested and passionate about the same things as me because it means that I can have intellectual conversations with people who understand this field of study. The idea of getting to live on an actual college campus is really exciting to me because I have never lived on one and this will help me get a better feel for what college life will be like. While I attend I hope to increase my individuality and learn to share my ideas without being dependent
Have a great time in the summer program at Hopkins! It looks like it will be an amazing experience for you. Can't wait to read about it!
