ASHTON PAGE

My name is Ashton, and I’m a third-year psychology major at the University of Texas at San Antonio and a UTSA IES Pathways Fellow. My research interests are in neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders and their impact on academic success. As someone who is neurodiverse, I hope to expand the existing body of knowledge on neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders over the course of my career. After graduating from UT San Antonio, I plan to enroll in a PhD program out of state and eventually become a research psychologist. In addition to being a Pathways Fellow, I’m an undergraduate research assistant for UT San Antonio’s TARDIS Lab and a McNair Scholar.

Outside of academia, I enjoy being involved in my community. I serve as the Secretary for the San Antonio Higher Education Student Advisory Board, where I advocate for college students like myself. In my spare time, I love hiking in the Hill Country, trying new coffee shops, and spending time with my beloved senior cat, Sampson.
