Former President of the Launceston Skeptics, Former Vice-chair of the March for Science Australia and Lead Event Organiser for the March for Science Hobart & Launceston., and a science advocate who seeks to promote critical thinking and an understanding of the scientific method. I’m here to help make science accessible to the community in fun and interesting ways. My day job is in international research strategy where I foster global collaboration. I like working across academic, government, and NGO sectors, and am active in a silly amount of extracurriculars. I am a professional science communicator with a passion for making science accessible for everyone. I work in educational outreach, help run science festivals nationally and play a bit of jazz on the side! I have always been enthusiastic about STEM even as a child. Graduating a chemical engineer, I have had a fortunate career managing innovative projects resulted from smart lateral thinking and to be able to promote continued research to challenge existing paradigms is exciting. As a current communications professional with a long history of working in events, I enjoy the journey of bringing people together for an event and am passionate about content creation advocating equitable and accessible STEM education. Outside of work, you’ll find me seeking out the sun, book and c… I’m a finance professional that cares about the environment. I hope that a more sustainable and equitable society can be achieved by learning and understanding our world through science and education. I love socialising with my friends, crafty things, boardgames and my many indoor plants! I am a lecturer, researcher, animal lover, and diehard nerd. I am very passionate about science and the absolutely amazing work that is being done locally and at a national level, and want to share this with anyone and everyone who will take a moment to listen. My main goal is to see the community e… I'd like to see science news make the front page everyday. I'm a science journalist and strategy consultant with an interest in frogs, stars and everything in between. As a PhD candidate at JCU, I'm fascinated by the world of viruses. My research delves into their genetics and genomic modelling to find solutions to infections. I love sharing my passion for science in fun and exciting ways - especially over a good pint!
