I’m a freelance writer with 25+ years of experience creating content for consumer magazines, higher education, and government agencies. My work has been published by national brands and publications, including NASA Global Climate Change, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, EARTH magazine, National Parks, and AAA Midwest Traveler.
I’ve also served as editor of several publications, including a NASA earth science publication, the alumni magazine of Colorado School of Mines, and publications focused on water resources and natural hazards.
I earned a master’s degree in journalism and media communication from Colorado State University, and I am a member of the National Association of Science Writers.
I excel at telling the unique stories of a subject, whether it’s merging the adventure part of a scientist’s fieldwork with the research results or telling the historic backstory of a travel destination. I deliver polished and accurate text, I consistently meet deadlines, and I strive to make sure that my clients are happy with the final product.
Laurie was one of the best and most professional of the journalists I’ve worked with. Her finished article was excellent and accurately captured the science as well or better than any other article that I’ve been interviewed for.
