Norwalk, CT
DePaul University
This is Valbona’s fourth Susan Fund scholarship. Valbona took some gap years to travel the country and work in different jobs. She found Chicago and loves it. She is a psychology major who aspires to obtain a Masters and/or PhD program specializing in Developmental Psychology to become a child development psychologist. She ultimately wants to work with children and help them achieve their developmental milestones. This summer Valbona volunteered in her neighborhood community garden. She enjoyed spending time weeding, watering plants and building fences. Her letter of recommendation states, “I am positive that Valbona will bring her exceptional skills and leadership capabilities to any organization to seek only improvement and surpass her own limits.”
