I've got a new book review out in Audubon magazine today about the Feminist Bird Club's Birding for a Better World. It's a beautiful book filled with helpful tips and evocative art. Read more about it here: www.audubon.org/news/new-boo...

If you like birds, you need to drop everything right now (~6PM ET 11/30) and watch H. Jon Benjamin compete with David Sibley at drawing birds. Even if you don't like birds, this is objectively delightful. www.eventbrite.com/e/the-ultima...

I'm relaunching my freelance business! I'll continue reporting news in my established beats—chemistry, materials, and physical sciences—while expanding my coverage of environmental stories. My latest for Science News is about the unexpected chemistry helping a salty shrub stay slick in the desert.

This is the last piece I reported as a staffer at C&EN. In this Q&A, I spoke with historian Catherine M. Jackson about how wild it is that 19th-century chemists revealed the molecular nature of matter. I'm proud of how it turned out.
