I’m a freelance science journalist living in Harpswell, Maine. Most of my recent reporting covered chemistry, but I’ve also written about cod, climbing shoes, and Capitol Hill.

I was a staff writer at Chemical & Engineering News for 4 years, and before that a regular contributor to Forbes.com and Research Professional. My work has also appeared in ScienceNews, Hakai Magazine, Slate, Eos, and elsewhere on the web and in print.
