Bio
I am on a mission: to transform how scientists and engineers present their work. That’s because I believe that even the best science is destined to remain undiscovered unless it’s presented in a clear and compelling way that sparks innovation and drives adoption.
For almost a decade, I've traveled around the world to work with Fortune 100 corporations, institutions and universities, teaching the proven strategies I've mastered through my consulting work and during my time as a faculty member with the Department of Communication Arts & Sciences at Penn State University.
I'm passionate about
Empowering scientists and engineers to present their work effectively. Eradicating bullet points from PowerPoint slides.
An idea worth spreading
Science not communicated is science not done.
Areas of expertise
Engineering Outreach, scientific communication, Scientific Presentations and Slide Design
