My education has focused in the study of Psychology since 1996 until 2005. From 1996 until 1999, I studied Psychology and Criminal Justice at California State University, Fullerton (CSUF). In 2003, I began my Master of Arts degree in Quantitative Analysis at CSUF and expect to graduate June of 2005. Below is a loose outline of my academic history.
The fall of 1996 through the fall of 1997, my undergraduate course work focused on fundamental courses such as:
During the time from fall 1996 to fall 1997, I decided to add a second major in Criminal Justice. I incorporated the course work from Criminal Justice into my schedule.

From the spring of 1998 through the spring of 1999, I worked on finishing the required course work for each major and added Independent lab research with multiple instructors.

In the spring of 1999, I graduated and decided to take some time to relax. This idea about relaxing quickly ended when I realized that I missed my training and decided to take classes post-baccalaureate. I took a class each semester from the fall of 1999 through 2003. In the fall of 2003, I began my M. A. in psychology. During my training, I found a strong interest in twin research and elected to produce a thesis that is focuses on preadolescent twin development.
