I am a U.S.- born American citizen currently living in China. I lived in the U.S. until I left for graduate school in Australia in 2019. English is my native language. I'm a marine biologist with experience in writing research reports and creating insightful and concise presentations for a variety of issues. Regardless of the topic or content, I can help write, edit, and design the perfect research papers and presentations! I have also been a freelance content writer here on Upwork since June 2021, during which I've written roughly 200 blog and informational articles on various topics spanning ornithology, fishkeeping, pool management, and everything in between. Thus far, I have received nearly all 5-star reviews in all my collaborations. I am proficient in Python, as well as statistical analysis software such as Matlab, R, and MS Excel, and the visualization software ArcGIS. I will assist in writing and reviewing your brief throughout the entire process. Communication is key, so I would appreciate it if we can stay in touch!

I am a former biomedical researcher with a knack for writing and an eye for detail. My skill sets include writing scientific articles, technical content and web copy; editing manuscripts, technical writing and grant proposals; and designing and troubleshooting experiments. I find projects that allow me to make complex, technical subject matter accessible and compelling to any individual particularly rewarding, and my broad skill set and experience make me an ideal candidate for projects in small businesses, research labs and startups. My professional experience began as an award-winning biology instructor at the college and university levels, teaching entry- through graduate-level courses for over three years. Over the next decade, I performed highly technical heart research, where I discovered a new form of dilated cardiomyopathy and developed and implemented a gene therapy treatment in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. I now work exclusively as a science consultant and freelance writer.
