As a science writer, I entertain, educate, and empower my audiences by translating complex scientific literature into everyday language. I draw on elements of biochemistry, toxicology, and epidemiology to produce compelling writing that people can understand and relate to. Some of my work includes investigative reporting, health narratives, informational blogs, and educational materials. My science blog, Mithradatum, explores the amazing, scary, thrilling, wacky, bizarre, logical, paradoxical world of science.
