ASTRONOMY IS FOR EVERYONE
Promoting Public Passion
When was the last time you took in our shared sky?
Astronomy is a fantastic way to bring people together to share in our collective humanity and cosmic origins. In an age where scientific literacy and critical thinking are dwindling, astronomy is an accessible and impactful way to promote those values and to help people foster their own personal appreciation for and connection to the wonders of the sky.
What is Astronomy Everywhere?
I bring high quality astronomical content and presentations to your event, classroom or anywhere else! From live flight shows in planetarium software, telescope evenings at your site or even consultation on all things astronomical for your soon-to-be bestselling novel, I am here to help connect you to the cosmos.
A LITTLE ABOUT ME
I found my connection to astronomy through some amazing mentors and a local amateur astronomy group. I went on to take courses from high school through grad school in astronomy completing my bachelor's at San Francisco State University and my master's from Swinburne University. My passion has taken me from my hometown to the Big City, from California to New York, from Alaska to Chile and from coastal California to 47,000 ft into the air! I take pride in calling myself an astronomy communicator and a facilitator of that human connection to what exists beyond Earth's atmosphere.
I can find no greater joy than sharing what I love about astronomy and its affiliated sciences with those who have an interest in hearing it.

MY PROJECTS
Sharing Space
CULTURAL
CONNECTIONS
A critical component of my work is establishing an individual's connection to the shared heritage of astronomy - and no one knows someone better than one knows oneself. It is critical to let the public build and share their experiences and understanding of the sky in a welcoming environment. This allows them to address long-held beliefs or understanding without the anxiousness that can all too often accompany it.
PROGRAM PRODUCTION
My day job is facilitating public events for Sci-Comm, where I am privileged enough to get to work alongside scientists and communication experts, artists and storytellers, educators and researchers in a dazzling array of fields. I work hard to take what I have learned from them and distill what I can into engaging and scientifically accurate storytelling.
APPROACHABLE ASTRONOMY
When the public imagines an astronomer, they are often in a lab coat looking through the back-end of a telescope. I want to help folks see astronomers as approachable - every person is just that - another person.Â
Through humor and openness, I aim to ensure that the public can see astronomers and all scientists not as unapproachable geniuses in an ivory tower, but as people living their passions who have been trained to carefully tease out accurate information in some pretty amazing ways.
