I am an award-winning freelance science journalist and editor based in Vancouver, Canada. I am grateful to live and work on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples, who have long been stewards of these lands.

My writing has featured by outlets like the BBC, New Scientist, TED, and VICE. I was the recipient of the BBC’s 2018 Ivan Noble Bursary, and reported on breaking science and environment new stories for the BBC News website, World Service Radio and on World News TV.

I also produced a week-long series for the BBC’s 100 Women, shining a spotlight on women working in science around the world in celebration of Marie Curie’s 150th birthday, and have worked on science stories for Inside Science and Science in Action on BBC radio.

More recently, I spent 3 years as an editor at TED Ideas, and provided communications support for the launch of the Centre for Climate Justice at the University of British Columbia.

Both a planetary geologist and a midwife by training, I enjoy sharing the hidden truths of our home on this pale blue dot through human stories. I also have a past life as a theatre critic and am perpetually interested in the intersection of art and science.
