Hi, and thanks for visiting my website! I’m a science journalist who is passionate about sharing my curiosity about the world through my writing. I have a background in research biology at The Johns Hopkins University and am a graduate of the UC Santa Cruz Science Writing program. From 2008 through 2011, I was the assistant editor of the HHMI Bulletin, the quarterly magazine of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Prior to working at HHMI I had science writing internships at the Monterey County Herald, Stanford Medical School, the Yale School of Medicine and Science News magazine.
In June 2011, I moved to the sunny shores of Oahu for my fiancee’s medical residency. Now I freelance full-time, covering science and medicine. My clients include ScienceNOW, Nature Medicine, MyHealthNewsDaily.com, HHMI, Yale School of Medicine, the National Cancer Institute, and the University of Hawaii Cancer Center.
I’m easy to work with and have been praised for my error-free first drafts, my impeccable reporting skills, and my ability to clearly explain complex topics. I never miss a deadline and can turn a story around quickly.
