As the Education & Outreach Liaison for the FMAP project, I coordinate E&O activities for FMAP, including writing articles for the general public on research being performed within the group, and working with the Census of Marine Life on E&O activities. My background is in science and magazine writing/editing, and in the past I have written for several Canadian and international publications.

Also, as the Project Manager for the FMAP project, I am in charge of lab finances, personnel and administration.
