Career moves and real numbers from a working mom in North Alabama

Hi, I'm Meredith

I spent fourteen years in HR, sitting on the other side of hiring decisions, raise conversations and exit interviews. In January 2024 I switched careers and became a project manager for an engineering company in Huntsville.

Here I write down what I've learned about getting paid fairly, changing careers, dressing for work on a budget and keeping a two-career family running, with the real numbers from our house in Decatur.
