I have a passion for psychology. I also have a passion for music. I wish to explore emotion and cognition with hopes of incorporating musical elements. I have a BS in psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University. My experience in research is limited; however, I do have experience in using SPSS for data collection. I would love to have the opportunity to expand my knowledge and experience in psychological research related to cognitive and social psychology.I am currently a student in the M.A. for psychological sciences program at Northern Arizona University. I am currently working on a thesis for this program. My thesis will combine music and psychology (for which domain in psychology I am unsure). After I finish my Master's degree, I wish to go into a doctoral program in psychology.
