Science Journalist
I’m an aspiring science journalist and communicator. I'm currently completing a PhD in the Department of Integrative Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. Although my graduate education has primarily focused on scientific research, I've found many opportunities to explore my interest in journalism and communication while working on my degree.
