Somer is the Chief Content Officer at Raising Families living in Southern California with her husband and four-year-old son. She earned her Bachelor of Architecture degree from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and worked for 10 years in both mixed-use development and healthcare planning.
She decided to leave the architecture field in 2015 and became a self-taught web-developer, graphic designer, course-developer, writer, social media manager, and default all-things-technology person for the family business. In these fields, she knows what she’s talking about 93.5% of the time. The rest of the time she makes it up and hopes for the best.
Somer is the daughter of Raising Families co-founder Elane V. Scott. In addition to writing blogs she is the voice behind Raising Families’ Instagram profile @family.life.coach and the creator of the Family Bonding Challenge. In her free time she is an avid home-chef, Montessori enthusiast, house-plant addict, and continues to design homes and small renovations for select clientele.
