About me
- Scientist
- Enjoy designing and leading workshops
- Love connecting research ideas with everyday challenges
- Obsessed with note-taking apps
- Always curious, always learning something new
My work exists at the intersection of research, technical infrastructure, and community leadership.
My current work centers on the cognitive compromises of the common shrew, a model species for studying brain size plasticity and behavior.
I lead community initiatives that transform Open Science from a policy requirement into a practical workflow. This involves building the technical systems and professional networks necessary for digital collaboration. I love facilitating workshops and I focus on making complex ideas accessible and connecting people across fields. You can see examples of this in my Talks & Workshops and Projects pages.
Practicing Open Science is both a technical choice and a cultural one. I am committed to advancing transparency and reproducibility, ensuring data is not just “available” but actually usable.
Communities I’m part of:
- SORTEE — Code Club and Community Management
- R-Ladies Global — contributing to the blog
- The Turing Way — community management working group
- PCI Ecology — code editor
- The Carpentries - Instructor and member of the Code of Conduct Committee
I’m always curious about new ways to connect people and ideas.
