I’m Carey. I am a twenty four year old grad student living and working in the best city in the world- New York, New York!
I am a grad student working on my MSW, Masters of Social Work. I am going to a university with a clinical focus, which pretty much translates to learning how to be a mental health therapist. Most therapists are actually Masters level.
A part of my Masters program is to complete an internship. Since therapy is learned more effectively through practice, this experiential style of learning is essential. So three days a week I truck up to the south Bronx and work with at-risk adolescences.
Prior to moving up to NYC I was working for a marketing agency that works primarily in social media. I was lucky enough to be able to continue working for them on a part time basis from my apartment.
Between work, school and internship I try to fit in a social life and time to be a good puppy-mommy.
I recently moved here from warm and sunny south Florida and I am probably one of the few people that actually loved the winter!
When I do get a free moment, I love to bake and am trying to learn to cook more exciting meals than salads and sandwiches. I also love to paint and draw. I’ve recently started getting into photography. And of course explore this amazing place I call home- NYC!
You have such a cute schnauzer puppy 😀
Awe thank you! Lucy is actually a Havenese/Yorkie mix 🙂

Nice! My mom actually teaches social work at FAU, and she got her MSW at FIU and her BSW at FSU.
Wow! Small world!!
