Major: Speech, Language & Hearing Sciences

El Paso, TX
How’d you choose your major/minor?
I once thought I would become an engineer, but as I explored different career paths, I discovered that speech pathology was my true calling. I’ve always been interested in working closely with people, helping them, and teaching new skills. At the same time, I wanted to stay connected to the medical field, focusing on helping and educating adults and geriatric populations. Speech-language pathology allows me to combine these interests, making it the perfect fit for both my passions and my career goals.
What’s your favorite spot on campus?
I really enjoy going to the Grand Challenges Research Building. The view of the university is absolutley beautiful and it is a nice peacful place to get work done.
What has been the highlight of your college career thus far?
Having the opportunity to be involved in research and take on roles that help move that research forward has been a big highlight of my college experiences. It’s exciting to know that my contributions, even as a student, can support work that makes a real impact.
