About Me

Hello everyone!

I’m so excited to meet y’all and for my first year as a transfer student at ODU. My name is Jada Myricks, and I am originally from New Jersey, but I have lived in Newport News Va for several years now. I’m 23 years old, and this will be my first year as a transfer student at Old Dominion. My major is in Nursing with a minor in Psychology. After I obtain my Bachelor’s in Science degree, I plan to continue my education for my Master’s in Science degree and apply to the Physician Assistant program. In my free time, I love to read all genres of books. I am currently reading Think Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Also, in my free time, I like to watch horror movies. This summer would have been me my family first time on a cruise, but due to the pandemic, we had to reschedule our trip because the cruise ship we’re going to be on wasn’t going to be ready until February 2021. I hope that we will be able to cruise next year and we won’t have to postpone the cruise until 2022. Psychology has always been fascinating to me, especially abnormal psychology. I think that studying the human mind and why someone acts the way that they do is fascinating. My favorite television show is Criminal Minds. It’s a show about FBI agents who study serial killers, and I can binge-watch that show all day every day. I’m excited to learn more about cross-cultural psychology.

I chose this image because this picture represents the love and happiness I felt on this day. I was spending time with my family and we went out to dinner. This picture is one of my favorite pictures because this image is a frozen in time moment where I felt my most happiest.
