Biography

My name is Ruby Castro, I am from San Antonio, Texas, and I am a junior at UTSA majoring in Psychology and English. I aspire to get a PhD in Psychology and work as a clinical psychologist with a specialization in eating disorders. My motivations stem from my own personal experiences with mental health, and the prevalence of mental health issues and disordered eating habits within my own peers and community. My goal is to work with struggling individuals and help them reach a healthier mental state.
