My Story
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been trying to better understand human behavior. I love to explore the connections between our thoughts, perceptions, experiences, and actions. Currently, I do this through the lens of neuroscience and cognitive psychology.
Jen MozolicI love teaching at Warren Wilson because the students are so interesting and engaging. I'm incredibly lucky that I have a job where I get to come to work every day and learn something new or think about the world in a different way.
