OUTREACH
​&
SCIENCE COMMUNICATION

I am passionate not only about research, but outreach and science communication. During my PhD I was an active member of the University of Florida Natural Resource Diversity Initiative (NRDI). NRDI runs science outreach programs and presentations for a variety of afterschool, school, and summer camps in Gainesville, FL, as well as panels and career fairs for students at UF. Learn more about NRDI here!

Now in Lyon, France, I participate in local science festivals for the public, such as Festival Pop'Science and Fête de la Science, and activities with local schools.

I also present to classes and groups of all ages both in person and through Skype about bats, wildlife, and research in general. I participate in Skype A Scientist and any personal requests made through email or Twitter.

​I am always available to give any advice or tips for programs I have been able to participate in, such as National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program (NSF GRFP), Fulbright grants, or National Geographic Early Career grants. Feel free to contact me about any of these programs! I am making my application materials available on the Resources page for anyone to look at.

Finally, I make videos highlighting scientists and their work.
