I work as a freelancer for astronomy and space-based companies, organizations, academia and individuals to do communications, education and outreach for space. This can be anything from summarizing a scientific article or specific technology in simple English for a new demographic (such as the general public, kids, non-space professionals, or potential investors), website design for a new space start-up, public speaking for space companies and organizations at professional events or conferences, coordinating international astronomy events, social media content development, writing of announcements or press releases, and event planning support.

I am very interested in communicating science to a broad audience and especially enjoy working at the intersection of cutting-edge astronomical science and education and outreach to the general public.
