I am grateful for the opportunity to have such an incredible mentor at the APA Minority Fellowship Program Psychology Summer Institute. Dr. Goh is not only a great leader but also a remarkably humble person. His wisdom and support have been invaluable on my academic journey. #APA #MFPPSI2024

I met and chatted with Dr. Melba Vasquez at the APA Minority Fellowship Program closing dinner. She's an inspiration for emerging scholars, especially ethnic minority scholars. As a 2024 APA MFP fellow, I'm feeling inspired to strive for greatness like her in the future! #MFPPSI2024 #APA

It was a pleasure having you at Psychology Summer Institute! We’re looking forward to seeing the many achievements to come for you. #MFPPSI2024 #MFPfamily

I recently opened a new University of North Texas Mean Green account with DATCU Credit Union, which also allowed me to get a #MeanGreen debit card. My first deposit was the Southwest Educational Research Association Research Grant award for my dissertation. This competitive grant will be a huge help to my research.

Happy to be back at University of North Texas Research Day with UNT Educational Psychology Department. Thank you, UNT Research and Innovation, for bringing UNT scholars together for this wonderful event. #UNT
