What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to teach and promote justice reform while supporting underserved communities.

I am a dedicated and passionate individual pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice with a minor in Psychology at Pennsylvania State University. My academic journey has been marked by consistent excellence, as evidenced by my placement on the Dean's List for three semesters and being a recipient of the prestigious Presidential Walker Award. I am committed to leveraging my education to make a meaningful impact in the field of criminal justice.

In addition to my academic achievements, I have gained practical experience as an Urdu and Punjabi Interpreter, where I facilitate communication in medical settings, ensuring accuracy and cultural sensitivity. My role as a private tutor has further honed my skills in developing customized lesson plans and fostering academic confidence in students. I am particularly interested in teaching criminal justice at the college level and advancing mental health initiatives within correctional systems.
