## Recent academic and professional progress ## Recent academic and professional progress
The fall 2023 semester started a few weeks ago! I'm taking four 3-credit courses while continuing to work as an intern (now part-time) at the Administration for Children and Families (ACF). I'll also be participating in two graduate fellowship programs as an [Eagleton Fellow](https://eagleton.rutgers.edu/grad-fellowships/) (Eagleton Institute of Politics) and Second-Year [NJLEND](https://boggscenter.rwjms.rutgers.edu/student-experiences/njlend) Fellow (The Boggs Center on Developmental Disabilities). I'm almost done with the fall 2023 semester. I anticipate finishing my degree's requirements next semester and graduating in May 2024.
My temporary research assistant position with the Center for Research on Ending Violence (REV), Rutgers School of Social Work, will end on September 30. I'll be returning to work with a professor in the Department of Library and Information Science in October. I've also nearly finished deciding which doctoral programs I will apply to next fall.
I was also invited to attend the [Princeton Prospective PhD Preview](https://graddiversity.princeton.edu/prospective-phd-preview-p3) (P3) program, which will take place in October and "focuses on engaging scholars from diverse academic, research and non-traditional backgrounds around the path to the Ph.D."
