Bio
Bob McGivern
I had the pleasure of advising Brian on his MA thesis research while he was a Master's student at San Diego State University. He was an exceptional graduate student, bringing passion, intelligence and a great work ethic to his studies and research. Undergraduate students at SDSU really enjoyed Brian's lectures in Psychobiology and Introductory Psychology classes, a reflection of his outgoing personality as well as his attention to details in his class preparation. He has a talent for critical thinking and communicating his thinking process to others. I would recommend him enthusiastically for a teaching position involving college or high school students, as well as a research associate.

To Whom it May Concern: I am honored to provide this letter of recommendation for Brian Adams. I cannot imagine a more deserving, compassionate, gentle and qualified individual to enter into any field and as such, would hire him for our organization without hesitation should a position arise. Brian has been volunteering as an Emotional Support Group Facilitator since August 2005 for The Life Group LA after having attended our 40 hour Para-Professional Emotional Support Group Facilitator Training. Here are a few comments from his core training facilitators on their evaluations. •
