## Recent academic and professional decisions
Through AmeriCorps VISTA, I have been serving as the Program Evaluation Specialist at a large human service organization. I am returning to the Master of Social Work (MSW) program at Smith College School for Social Work in September 2022.
Through AmeriCorps VISTA, I have been serving as the Program Evaluation Specialist at a large human service organization.
I have been working toward a second bachelor's degree (Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science) at Thomas Edison State University (TESU). I am currently taking Data Structures (in C++), Database Management, and Software Engineering. I am also making use of credit recommendations from [ACE](https://www.acenet.edu/National-Guide/Pages/default.aspx) and NCCRS for coursework at non-collegiate providers (e.g., [Study.com](https://study.com/college/index.html)).
I plan to start the last two of my required classes (Computer Architecture and the liberal arts capstone) at TESU next month and apply for June 2022 graduation.
As of January 6, 2022, I have officially withdrawn from the Master of Social Work (MSW) program at Smith College School for Social Work. I have since applied to ALA-accredited master's degree programs in library and information science.
