How I Became a Professional Science Writer

I've made a career out of telling people how fascinating the universe is. Here's how I got here, from what I studied in college to how (and when) I landed my first full-time job.

There's still a lot I'm learning as a science communicator, but it's an honor to be here. Thanks for being along for this ride!
