Katelyn Schindel, Pickerington, Ohio, Social Work
2. What’s next for you after graduation?
After graduation I will be moving to China to teach at a university.
3. Long-term career goals?
At this point it is really all up in the air. Making long term plans freaks me out. I know I want to get my MSW (Masters of Social Work) at some point and I have a passion for working with at-risk youth.
4. What is the most important thing you learned at Lipscomb?
Probably the most important thing I have learned is that you don’t have to know exactly what you want to do with your life. Don’t just settle for what you feel expected to do. Do something that has value to you and put your whole heart into it.
5. Who at Lipscomb influenced you the most? How?
Well honestly, it would probably be Beth Jent. She has been my professor a number of times and has helped me figure out the kinds of things I want and enjoy doing. She is always willing to help out, and her passion for social work has provided me with motivation to succeed in the field.
