Writing
I’ve written about a wide range of topics over the course of my career, from archaeology and astrophysics to public health and neurobiology. The stories I gravitate toward most, though, are those about organisms and ecosystems, and the people working to understand, protect, and restore them.
In addition to my work for bioGraphic, my writing has appeared in Scientific American, Longreads, Pacific Standard, Audubon, Discover, Popular Science, Cosmos, and others, as well as in many museum exhibitions and visitor centers.
