Meet Psychology Student Ambassador Rosemary

Hi, my name is Rosemary!

I transferred here to Linfield my junior year from Chemeketa and I am now a senior majoring in psychology! After I graduate, I plan to go to graduate school to get my doctorate in clinical psychology.

I enjoy being involved with the psych department in multiple capacities! I am currently involved in research with Dr. Tompkins and Dr. Fornero (from the Portland campus) researching body image and social media. I am also gaining experience this fall as a teaching assistant for PSYC 101 with Dr. Bakner! I genuinely think psychology has something in it for everyone, whether it is wanting to understand ourselves or others better. Plus, the history of psychology is truly fascinating!

When I have some free time, I enjoy cooking, baking and spending time with my friends and my dogs. I love to go on walks, do some yoga or swim! Life is a balance, I am a big advocate for self-care in multiple forms so I try to balance doing something for my mind, body and soul!

I am more than happy to meet with anyone to talk about my experiences here at Linfield, so please feel free to reach out to me!
