Criminal Justice started off as my minor and I made it my major, I flipped it with psychology. I felt immediately intrigued by the case studies 鈥 Social Deviance and Criminal Procedure was one of my favorite classes. I want to go into the FBI as a profiler, so Criminal Justice plus mixing in Psychology, well, you know how the court system works, and you can interrogate anyone at anytime.
What do I want to do when I graduate? There are so many kinds of jobs. I want the FBI and to understand how a person鈥檚 mind works. I can be a lawyer or a victim鈥檚 advocate. I鈥檓 starting an internship this fall with the聽Jersey City Youth Court Program. I got the internship through my criminal justice professor, Judge Callahan.聽It鈥檚 a long process to get into the FBI, I want to make sure I have a backup. 聽
