Captain of the Nudge Patrol is a nickname my dad gave me when I was a child. I know it's a silly name, but it truly captures the kind of person that I am... someone who likes to constantly "nudge" the people and things around me. As for why I created this blog, I want to give those considering a career in social work, an inside look into the fun, the demands, and the emotional hardships I encounter while I obtain my Master’s in Social Work at the UCLA School of Public Affairs.
