Hey all! My name is Alexandra Green (she/her/hers), I’m a first-year doctoral student at Idaho State University! I’m originally from the beautiful Flathead Valley in Montana. I attended Montana State University for both my undergraduate degree in applied psychology and my master's degree in clinical mental health. In addition to my schooling, I have served in the Army National Guard as a medic for about ten years now. Through my work in counseling and the Army, I’ve become passionate about working with trauma survivors, specifically military and first responders. My research interests are the intersectionality between neurodivergence and the military/first responder populations. My goals are to improve understanding of those who identify with these populations and how best to serve them. When I’m not in school I love to hit the trails for hikes or running, the river for fishing and kayaking, or really anything that gets me and my pups outdoors in some sunshine!
