Science Writing
I love writing about science – both the products and the process of research. I'm particularly interested in humanizing scientists and communicating the layered ethical thought processes that researchers engage in. I am also interested in science education, diversity and equity in the academic sciences and beyond, and renewable energy. Selected samples of my writing in each of these categories are linked below.
