After completing a bachelor's degree in biology and master's degree in psychology, I went on to do just about everything that's legal (and perhaps a few things that weren't). In my convoluted career path, I have wandered into zoo keeping, copywriting, market research, herb farming, pharmaceutical sales, and finally teaching. Currently, I am a freelance writer and an adjunct college professor, teaching courses in cell and microbiology.
Although educated in the sciences, I have an insatiable curiosity about everything, and my broad range of experience leaves almost no topic off limits. In addition to a background in copywriting, I have published a master's thesis on primate behavior and written on various topics for Helium, LesTout, the Ontonagon Herald, Eaton County News and Michigan Herb Association.
Suite101 writer Feature Writer for Microbiology and Science & Nature Channel Guide at LesTout, I also contribute articles on a wide range of topics including Mental Health, Genetics, Evolution, Chemistry, Infectious Disease, Orchid Care, and Pet Care. I have recently launched the website Science Prof Online, a go-to source for clear, easy-to-understand information on general biology, cell biology, microbiology, including both a Virtual Cell Biology and Virtual Microbiology Classroom.
If you are interested hiring me as freelance writer for your organization, you can present your project and view my profile and portfolio on Elance.
I live in Michigan with my husband and three children where I spend my spare time trying to take a quick nap.
