A premier digital strategist and content creator with a proven history engaging and growing educated and curious audiences.

 

I help science-driven and mission-focused organizations transform complex knowledge into compelling stories, digital experiences, and audience connections that create impact.

I work at the intersection of science, storytelling, technology, and audience strategy—leading editorial teams, developing digital platforms, and helping scientists, explorers, and experts share discoveries and ideas that matter. My most recent work focuses on sustainability, nature-inspired innovation, and communicating complex environmental challenges to both public and corporate audiences.

My career has taken me from AOL’s early Internet publishing environment, through National Geographic’s global science and exploration platforms, to leading editorial strategy and AI-enabled knowledge products at the Biomimicry Institute. Across these organizations, I have focused on the same challenge: making important knowledge more discoverable, understandable, and meaningful for broad audiences.

Now I’m engaged in applying digital strategy and science communication skills to other sectors, developing ethically grounded, factually verified, and consistently-voiced AI systems, and exploring the ways emerging technologies can help organizations connect people with ideas and actions that shape our place in the world.
