Claire Burgess '10

Researcher at Xanedu Publishing Firm
Louisville, KY
Major at Wooster: Psychology and Philosophy

I was prepared for life after college because Wooster allowed me the latitude to study different areas. I currently work for a publishing firm that produces all kinds of texts, so it’s helped me quite a bit in my job to have an understanding of diverse areas and to attack research questions in novel ways. It’s also given me a great group of friends. This summer I plan to teach English in Vietnam and travel Asia before attending grad school in the fall at the University of Southern California. I’m going there to study clinical psychology and am very excited about studying and living in the area. Being an outdoor-activity nut, I can’t wait to see the opportunities for beach and mountain adventures that the Los Angeles area holds for me!
