A Little About Me: I am pursuing an MFA in Science and Natural History Film. This is my sixth semester working at the writing center; I started here while pursuing my bachelor's in environmental biology with a minor English writing. Outside of MSU, I work in science communications. I have a special place in my heart for biogeochemistry (especially in relation to riparian systems), but I love learning about research projects across all fields! As a tutor, my primary goal is to help folks navigate the stresses of academia and grow more comfortable utilizing their written voice.
