About Me
I am a science educator, communicator, and writer with a passion for helping everyday people fall in love with science. I also enjoy graphic design and video editing, and I specialize in creating informational yet engaging content for social media. I am the co-founder of psychology blog BrainStamp.org and the author of poetry collection, "Science & Art are the Same Thing." I write regularly for the Duke Lemur Center’s online blog.
I live in Durham, NC, with my two cats, Jinkx and Nora. In my free time, I enjoy watching Survivor and RuPaul's Drag Race, painting and sketching plants and animals, and exploring local thrift shops.
