About
I love discovery and adventure! I’m also a fan of collaboration and love to introduce others to the thrill of making a discovery.
My work in science, education, communication and engineering has been recognized and featured in publications and media outlets such as Nature, Science, Scientific American, Popular Science, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, MSNBC, CBS,CNN, and NPR. In June 2013, the President of the United States and the White House Executive Office of The President honored me as a Champion of Change for my dedication to increasing public engagement in science and science literacy.
