FinalistBio
Hello! I’m Kyree, a full-time student at George Mason University, working toward my B.A. in Psychology and M.Ed. in Counseling. I’ve always been passionate about understanding people, excelling in academic endeavors, and making a positive impact—whether through leadership, advocacy, or simply lending a helping hand.
I am currently in a gap period away from school (January 2025 - ?). My goal during this time will be to pay for past semester debt, save for future semesters, and gain valuable experience working in the mental health field. I am currently starting out as a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT), jump-starting my professional development.
Over the years, I’ve balanced academics, work, hands-on leadership, customer service, and peer mentorship. Every role has shaped my ability to communicate, problem-solve, and support others.
✨ A little about me:
✔ Former President of the Black Student Union at Laurel Ridge CC
✔ Member of the National Society of Leadership and Success
✔ Honored with multiple academic & leadership scholarships
✔ 10+ years of volunteer work—because giving back is important to me!
