Psi Chi — The International Honor Society in Psychology

Hi, my name is Kayla Smoke. I am a junior majoring in psychology and minoring in family studies. I am also a member of the honors college, and a psychology advisor. As an individual who is passionate about learning, takes initiative, and gives my all to everything I pursue. I want to contribute to the advancement of psychology on campus and lead Psi Chi with their mission in mind: to encourage, maintain, and stimulate excellence in the field of psychology. As the popularity of psychology increases at Boise State, I want to embrace this growth by inspiring fellow psychology majors to participate in activities that broaden their understanding of the field. It is my goal to stimulate professional and personal growth, help foster connections, and create an inclusive environment that celebrates every diverse perspective in the field of psychology. My favorite areas of study include abnormal psychology, mental health, and gender psychology. Some of my hobbies include music, figure-skating, and interior decoration.

Hi all! My name is Carrie Seekamp, a rising senior majoring in Psychology and obtaining certification in Cyber Operations here at Boise State. I am originally from Portland, Oregon and moved to Boise in August of 2022 as a transfer student from a community college. Outside of school you can often find me hiking or cooking, my most recent hike was to the alpine Goat Lake in the Sawtooth Mountain Range! Come August of 2023, this will be the start of my first full academic year as a part of our Psi Chi chapter. I am committed to supporting each member of our club in their endeavors, and I am so excited to get to know you all! Go Broncos!

My name is Annie Boyle and I will be a junior this upcoming school year. I’m from Gig Harbor, Washington (about an hour away from Seattle!) and I love to go hiking, run and I love cats. I am super passionate about psychology, I think it’s such a diverse field, and it’s so intriguing because we are constantly learning more and more about human behavior and the brain. I enjoy working closely with others and creating relationships within the psychological science department. I look forward to meeting new people!

My name is Tionna Gardner and I was born and raised in Boise, Idaho. In my free time I enjoy concerts, bike riding, traveling, picnics in the park, and camping with friends. With my finance background and experience as an AmeriCorps member with City Year, where I managed budgets as part of my role, I am well-equipped to handle Psi Chi’s financial affairs. My commitment to responsible budgeting, fiscal transparency, and accurate record-keeping will ensure that our organizations funds are managed effectively.
