Saint
Mary's Social Work Majors...
Making a Difference!
My heart yearns to give myself to others. I cannot help but recall a few of the most beautiful lessons I have learned from the faith that I have grown up with. When I think about treating others the way I would like to be treated I think about the times when I ask, I believe it will be given unto me, when I seek I know soon I will find, and when I knock I know the door will be open unto me. The way I want to treat others is by helping be the one to answer the questions asked, try and seek what others are longing to find, and being the person on the other side of the door when they knock. I want to offer myself to others in ways that many people would like to do but simply do not take the time, take the risks, or accept the challenge to do. Being a social worker is what I feel I am called to do, what I am called to love, and I what I am called to die trying to do. God tells us, “do not worry about your life,” and so I shall not worry about my life, but I will worry, defend, protect, and provide for the lives of others in whichever way I am able.

Mary's Social Work Majors...
Making a Difference!
I want to be a social worker because I have always been interested in helping others, advocating for those in need and working towards social change. I began my Saint Mary’s career in Nursing, but realized that Social Work better suited my interests. I realized that Social Work is a dynamic profession where you can truly make a difference in the lives of others. I know that my social work education will guide my path of service in the United States Navy and my future aspirations in the social work field.
