A Little About
​Myself.

I am a science writer covering a wide array of topics, from climate to chemical engineering and paleontology to physics. I have been writing about science since graduating from the USCS Science Communication program in 2009, first as a freelancer, then as a staffer for Live Science, and then as a freelancer again. I love the opportunities freelancing affords to write about varied subjects in varied styles. You can frequently find my work at Scientific American, Live Science, the APA Monitor on Psychology, and Chemical Engineering Progress.

​I am based in Denver. When I'm not writing, you can find me dragging my kids on outdoor adventures or learning new embroidery stitches.
