I am a science communicator specializing in content related to biology, psychology, and environmental science. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science from Queen's University, I pursued a career in science communication. Interning for the UNESCO Georgian Bay Biosphere Reserve taught me how to share scientific information with numerous and diverse audiences. I first discovered my passion for science education during my time as Site Coordinator at the Let's Talk Science chapter at Queen's University. My content writing strategy is based on this passion. Regardless of your audience, your readers will appreciate research-backed content that doesn't compromise readability.
