post 2: An eternal student

I do not remember having dreamed of any work or career as a child, but I remember perfectly that when I was in high school I decided that I wanted to be a psychologist. The first time I took the test I did not do well. The second time I could choose what I wanted, but I was so afraid of not enter the university that I applied for two more careers: kinesiology and dentistry, but my first three options were psychology, and I stayed in the first.

I think that studying psychology was the best decision I could make. I have always relied on my communication skills and my ability to empathize with others.

In the university I confirmed my vision. I have always liked to study, I have done many specialization courses, two postgraduate courses and I am currently doing my doctorate in psychology. While it is stressful at times, most of the time I find it interesting and challenging. Once I graduate, I hope to continue my academic career and participate in research teams in the area that interests me, old age and gender violence.
