Through the trials and tribulations in life, I found myself to be quite content with who I have become. My name is Sagely Houghland and I truly believe that I have what it takes to be an exceptional addition to help better ourselves. I attack problems head on to be able to achieve a sense of knowledge and a game plan of how to resolve it. I am a Sophomore at University of Arkansas pursuing my dream of being a Psychologist. I hope to attain a full time job working in the field of human resources.I learned at a young age that I am a determined problem solver and also advocate for those in need. From a young age I learned the importance of a strong work ethic, organization and ambition. This has inspired me to accomplish what I have today.
Throughout my life I have faced challenge after challenge, finding the best ways to adapt and make through my difficulties. In doing this, I have found taking charge of my situation and finding the best way to get through it. Personally, I adapt to every situation due to my childhood experience working with all different levels of people. I excel at problem solving with other peers and demonstrating a strong leadership view. As a result, my communication skills have sprouted throughout the years, making me feel confident to communicate with others even through the difficult trials.
Ultimately I am inspired to resolve as much conflict as I can and positively help others. I strive to figure out what is not seen directly, but what is felt, realized or understood in others view. My research, extra curricular, and experiences are an indicator about how serious I am about the quality of mental help others are receiving when they need it. I have worked with Sports Psychologists at the University of Arkansas, Life ministries sanction for those in need and also Cardinal Care Therapy Center in interning to further my depth of knowledge in this field. This is something I am very passionate about and what excites me to do. All of these experiences are here on my ePortfolio I would love for you to check out. Helping others is the key to success in my eyes and I would love to discuss more with you about my passion.
