Bio: I have just graduated from a Bachelor of Science at the Australian National University, with a major in chemistry. I work across various science communications positions, and I am passionate about engaging youth, women, and the general public in science.

Likes: Astronomy and stargazing, coding, art galleries, classic literature

Fun fact: I’m currently learning to develop film in a darkroom!

Contributions to Science: I work with various science communication organisations, working both behind the scenes and with the public. I’ve given presentations, run exhibitions, worked on the concept design of science activities, hosted telescope observing nights, written scientific articles for the local paper, and worked with volunteer movements like #IncludeHer.
