I am an experienced editor, writer, and social media marketer looking for new opportunities to help people in the STEM industries tell their personal and professional stories. I specialize in news and feature writing, blogging, creating and executing social media campaigns, copy editing, substantive editing, proofreading, and translating complicated information into general terms.For the past 10 years, I have focused on the fascinating world of photonics, the science and technology of light. From microscopes to lasers to optical sensors, there has grown a large industry around the creation, manipulation and practical use of light of every wavelength, and I enjoy writing about advances in photonics.I am currently writing a series of blog posts for the Optical Society of America in advance of its upcoming CLEO conference, one of the world's largest (and best) gatherings of photonics leaders in the world.
