With the Help of a long list of interesting and unusual jobs, I have traveled around the world. I've worked as an underwater camerawoman for scientific research in Australia, an insect collector in the jungles of Peru, and a Peace Corps volunteer in Niger, West Africa.
My work has earned a silver award for excellence from Washington Ed Press and the New Horizon's fellowship award from the Council for the Advancement of Science Writing.
I hold bachelor's degrees in Anthropology and MagazineJournalism from Syracuse University and Newhouse School of Communications.
