**//Hello, my name is Taléa and let me just say, I am very excited to be at this point in my Doctoral Studies! I am a PhD student in the Higher Ed program. I am origionally from North East Ohio. I earned my B.S from Miami University (OH) in Family Studies and my M.Ed. from the University of Louisville in College Student Personnel. //**   **//I am currently the Athletic Academic Counselor for our Football and Men's Basketball teams here at Kent State. I have been researching the "sophomore slump" since 2007 and I have finally narrowed it down to a topic that is __researchable__ by looking at the sophomore slump through the eyes of a Division-I student-athlete and primarily focus on Football to find "predictors" of the sophomore slump within student-athletes //** **//Outside of work and school, those that know me know that my favorite color is purple (and I am somewhat obsessed with it) and I love my apple products. I am also a huge gamer and a fan of games like Guitar Hero, DJ Hero and Dance Central on my XBox Kinect. I look forward to seeing and working with everyone this summer! //**  **GO FLASHES!!**
