“My passion lies in providing counseling for athletes and conducting research to identify interventions that enhance their mental health, well-being and athletic performance. Working as a research assistant in Merrimack’s SCAN Lab has brought psychology to life for me. Beyond the theories from class, it has become about finding real solutions to real problems.

The work I do now provides valuable experience in participant engagement, as well as proficiency with various equipment and software used for data collection. It prepares me for a future where I aim to explore the connections between an athlete’s motivation, confidence and mental strategies to shape their success. I am determined to find ways to help athletes overcome challenges both on and off the field, empowering them to thrive in all aspects of their lives.”

Deborah Ndayisaba ’27, Merrimack’s new Black Student Association (BSA) president, said overseeing the organization has been her pride and joy. She longed to see BSA have more of a presence on campus and once the presidency opened up, she seized the opportunity.

In addition to her efforts on campus with student organizations, working with mothers and maternity advocates influenced her decision to pursue a career as an OBGYN. She is currently on the pre-med track, pursuing her undergraduate degree in psychology with a minor in biology.

“I traveled to Kerala, India with Dr. Azam Noori for the three-day International Phytotechnology Conference. There were people from so many countries and science from all over the world. It was really incredible to see the work being done all over. The value of an international conference is not only are you getting to learn about research being done, but you’re seeing it done in so many different places with different concerns. It really helps make you pause and think - how can we at Merrimack apply our work to be more international, to be more helpful for others across the globe?”
