I am a stay at home mom who is seeking a career change. Prior to children I worked as a Project Manager in Marketing and Events as mostly related to the arts. Social Psychology deeply interests me and I would love to connect with others in the field especially in the Seattle area. I am currently taking Professor Scott Plous's Social Psychology course on Coursera and am learning quite a lot about the field, about myself and about the world around me.
