Megan is a Psychology major in UCLA graduate school. Studying Psychology is a big challenge for Megan because she majored in International Studies in undergraduate studies. She was attracted to it because she likes to communicate with people from different cultures, but as she worked as an intern and volunteer at several places, she found Psychology as something to pursue for the rest of her life. Megan is especially interested in child psychology. Through her volunteer experience with helping children from low income families, she was shocked to find out that so many teenagers go the wrong way because of financial hardships and lack of care. That¡¯s when she realized that teaching them how to make right decisions is as important as teaching them how to study. So Megan hopes to be a counselor or a professor to help students in need.
