I am 24 years old. Have just completed my undergraduate degree alongside being a single mother to two little boys now aged 7 and 5. I achieved a First Class Hons Psychology degree and hope to go on to begin a Phd in the near future.
My recent study has fostered a deep and enduring interest in the entire spectrum of psychology, with slight emphasis towards abnormal, child and social. Currently i write for fun and interest keeping my mind active, a lot of which is based around current topics in psychology.
I also have interests in a variety of other topics, to which the list grows everyday. Current examples are: health and exercise, films, music, pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding and children generally, pets/animals, art, and even novels focusing on complex relationships, and crime. These topics will undoubtedly show up in my writing soon enough!
thanks for reading this! Haz
