CAMBRIDGE, UK – I’ve worked in science communication for more than twenty years. After reading chemistry at university, I worked and travelled in the USA, did a stint in a QA/QC lab and then took on a role as a technical editor for the Royal Society of Chemistry. Then, following an extended trip to Australia, I returned and began contributing as a freelance to the likes of New Scientist and various trade magazines. I’ve been growing my portfolio and cuttings file ever since. You can connect with me on Google+, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn etc using the icons below.
