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.

I’m a life sciences researcher and data analyst with an MS in Biotechnology (GPA 4.0, Florida Institute of Technology, 2026) and a BS in Biology with a minor in Animal Behavior (Indiana University, Magna Cum Laude). I build statistical workflows, analyze complex biological datasets, and write clearly for scientific audiences. During my graduate research at Florida Tech, I replaced a $1,000+/year paid data collection platform with a custom open-source R solution, designed automated field data workflows, and integrated multi-source environmental data into reproducible pipelines. As an undergraduate researcher at Indiana University, I analyzed multi-year GPS wildlife tracking datasets, cleaned long-term behavioral observation records, and built the lab’s first searchable specimen database from 40+ years of archival records. WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU - Statistical analysis: regression, mixed-effects models, hypothesis testing, descriptive statistics - R and Python scripting and pipeline development - Data cleaning and transformation from messy, multi-source datasets - Publication-quality visualizations with ggplot2 and matplotlib - Reproducible reporting via R Markdown and Jupyter Notebooks - Scientific writing: Methods, Results, and Discussion sections - Literature reviews, grant background sections, and lay summaries - Manuscript editing for clarity, accuracy, and journal style My background spans field ecology, molecular biology, and computational data science. I work equally well with observational biological data, commercial analytics datasets, and structured clinical data. I’m detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and used to communicating complex findings to non-specialist audiences (I’ve taught college biology). Whether you need a quick data clean-up or a full analysis pipeline with a written report, I can help. Message me with what you’re working on. I reply within 24 hours.
