What is science communication?
Science communication is the craft of taking complex, specialised knowledge and making it understandable, engaging, and genuinely useful for people outside the field. Talks, writing, demos, video, whatever it takes to turn a “huh?” into an “aha!”.
What's a science slam?
A science slam is like a poetry slam, but instead of poems you explain an idea, and the goal is to actually get it across. Entertainment and education in one.
I actually started on poetry-slam stages. Between 18 and 22 I performed lyrical prose, short stories with a lyrical touch, and travelled to perform around the country. That mix is still me: science and art, the technical and the creative.
The artistic side: event artWhy this matters to me
Making complex ideas tangible, and a little bit magic, is what I love most about teaching. It runs through my whole life:
Age 10 onward
Teaching maths
Started counselling classmates in maths at ten, and kept at it all through high school and university.
University
Teaching Assistant
Tutored logic, statistics and mathematics, later computational neuroscience.
University
Lecturer
Taught hands-on statistics and statistical methods; designed and led seminars in psychology, scientific programming and statistics.
Alongside & after
Science festivals & volunteering
Taught at science festivals for every age, from kids to university students, plus volunteering.
Since 2019
Company trainings
Two pillars: technical workshops for dev teams, and higher-level AI & software-engineering workshops for managers and consultants.
