Hi, my name is Mary. I am a first- year graduate student at Salem State University in the Psychology Masters Counseling program. I graduated Salem State University with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a writing minor. I’ve lived in the Worcester area most of my life but now I live in Salem. In my free time I like to write poetry, bake, and spend time with family and friends. I also like video games, Mortal Kombat is my favorite. This will be my first year as a Student Success Coach and as a Graduate Office Assistant and I am so excited to start this new journey. I hope to provide the support needed to help each student strive for academic success.
