Hi! I’m a Brooklyn-based science writer/editor with work in outlets including The New York Times, Popular Science, The New Republic, VICE Magazine, and Scholastic’s Science World. I currently work as an editor at Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

I received a master’s degree in science journalism at Columbia University in May 2020, and before that I was a senior writer at Jezebel, where I wrote about politics, pop culture, and fireflies.
