Summary

Currently undergoing my fourth and final year at Macquarie University in a double degree of Psychology and Primary Education. I have chosen this degree as I strongly hope to become a professional in both the educational and psychological areas in future. From this degree I have learnt that I have a deep interest in the neurological working of the brain and utilize those lessons in the area of learning.
