Welcome! I'm Robin (she/her), a science journalist in Portland, Ore. I have worked as a writer and editor, primarily in journalism, for over a decade. My strengths include learning technical subjects, in-depth interviewing, storytelling, and translating complex concepts for laypeople. I like bringing big ideas together and helping others make connections, both with ideas and each other.My top values are honesty, kindness, and emotional intelligence. I've directly experienced the value of mentorship and offering mentoring, which are among my most profound professional experiences. Thanks to all who mentor and to those who have mentored me.When not at the keyboard, I am an Ironman triathlete, free diver, sailor, and open-water (ice!) swimmer. I recently was part of a three-person crew that crossed the South Pacific in a small sailboat from Nuku Hiva, French Polynesia, to Hawai'i.
