I’m Natalie, a marine science writer specializing in ocean conservation. With a background in scientific research and marine biology, I have a unique ability to transform complex topics into clear, engaging content. Whether it’s writing blogs, articles, website copy, or compiling research reports and literature reviews, I take pride in producing well-researched, accessible material for my clients. I also design custom infographics to complement written content to make pieces both informative and visually appealing. Although my professional experience is rooted in data collection and research, much of my career as a biologist involved public outreach—giving lectures, speaking with diverse audiences, and finding creative ways to make science relatable. This hands-on communication experience is what ultimately led me to become the science communicator I am today. I’m passionate about crafting accurate, engaging content that educates and inspires, without sacrificing scientific integrity for the sake of sensationalism. You can explore my work and learn more about my services at saltycopy dot com. Got a project in mind? I’d love to hear from you!

I'm looking for work as a freelance Christian writer. I've been writing for most of my life. Writing is one of my God-given talents and I believe he is calling me into full-time ministry, to use my gifts for His kingdom. I would love to be able to reach out particularly to people who are hurting, lonely and brokenhearted. I have personal experience dealing with these issues throughout my life. All the while, Jesus has been a constant friend and support to me. I'd be grateful for the opportunity to take part in His mission to "heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds".

I am Danielle Glynn, a scientist who studied how ocean ecosystems are changing with climate using the chemistry recorded in deep sea corals. During my bachelors in Earth System Science at UC Irvine I spent three years in a radiocarbon lab working with corals. For my senior project I examined the signal of nuclear bomb fallout integrated into a coral in the eastern tropical Pacific, noticeable through radiocarbon analysis. Then upon entering graduate school at UC Santa Cruz, I continued studying corals, only in this case the deep sea variety, which record within their growth layers the signal of nutrients and phytoplankton in the waters above. My PhD projects allowed me to send robots into the deep sea and involved a variety of drilling, weighing, and analytical techniques required to turn coral skeletons into amino acids in order to measure molecular and isotopic information. I have substantial teaching and mentoring experience during my graduate degree primarily in the fields of earth and marine science, chemistry, and biology.

My name is Dillon Jones. As a well seasoned biologist, eco-evolutionary data wizard, and passionate science communicator, I am equally comfortable treading through a swamp in search of turtles, cleaning large geographic datasets for use in wildlife conservation, or producing educational videos on a wide variety of subjects. With over a decade of research experience, I have developed a robust data analysis and biostatistical background that compliments my boots on the ground conservation work. My roots are in field ecology, where I have tracked mud turtles in dynamic river systems, developed wildlife surveys for urban parks, and investigated hybrid zones for tadpoles, among many other projects. My research is primarily based in the reptiles and amphibians of Belize, but I have worked across taxonomic groups and locations. However, I firmly believe that it is not enough to just collect data, but to understand the stories it can tell.
