Brittany Aller
Brittany is currently working towards her Masters of Social Work. Brittany was inspired to pursue her degree by her mother. Her mom received a license in Social Work, which led Brittany to see all the good her mom was able to do with the individuals she worked with. Brittany’s mom worked to build healthy relationships with many children and adults that had never experienced stability in their lives. Additionally, she watched her mother support many individuals in their academic, occupational, and personal endeavors. Brittany wants to work with vulnerable populations, such as children or people with disabilities, and be a source of support and care for them and their loved ones. As a busy graduate student, Brittany enjoys baking with her daughter, going on walks with her husband, listening to True Crime podcasts, and taking naps.
Brittany ultimately wants to work with children in the public school system by helping them enhance their confidence, emotional regulation skills, and social emotional well-being. She would like to incorporate mindfulness into their daily learning environment, so they can feel grounded and supported while achieving their academic goals.
“Boise State University has been such a highlight in my life”, states Brittany.
She admits that grad school has not been easy but BSU has made it an incredible experience where I have met lifelong friends and received great mentorship from my professors along the way. Brittany is graduating this spring and is expecting a baby, due in July 2024, so she wants to balance a growing family, find a career in her local school district, and work toward her license in social work.
Congratulations Brittany!
