From basic research to life-saving drugs: the University of Connecticut's medical and bioscience research effort is huge. My mission is to keep track of it, and keep the public informed. The research was done with public money, and the public deserves to know about it! I keep open lines of communication with UConn's research faculty and with the science writing press. If you're interested in anything regarding medical or bioscience research at UConn, get in touch.

I edit technical articles on optics, energy, nanotechnology, computer awareness and other topics for clarity and style.

I assessed the Appalachian physical coal markets and tracked ongoing developments in both the domestic and export arenas. I constantly worked to extend and improve Argus' relationships within the coal industry.I also kept a sharp eye on Congress and state legislatures, as coal's fortunes depend on intelligent US energy and environmental policy. My news and market analyses appeared in multiple Argus publications covering coal, emissions, power and rail.

I assessed the renewable energy certificate (REC) markets and tracked ongoing developments in the field. My efforts to expand Argus' contacts and expertise in this area transformed the REC market assessments, once informal monthly surveys, into daily data sets on a par with the rest of Argus' data on energy markets around the world. In addition to providing REC market discovery, I reported news from Capitol Hill and covered for the US emissions market reporter on an as-needed basis.

Freelance journalist specializing in physics and technology. My articles on physics, material science and energy appeared in internationally recognized publications and wire services including Science, New Scientist, Analytical Chemistry, Reuters and IEEE Spectrum.

Reported and edited both short- and long-form stories on breaking science news for an international science magazine.
