Scientific writer, desk researcher

Profile Summary

I have a bachelor’s degree in biophysics and a master’s degree in botany. Therefore I have general knowledge, understanding, and familiarity with terminology in a broad field of natural science. I have worked in an environmental research-oriented physics lab for three years and later in two different environmentally and culturally oriented EU level projects - one concerning natural plant habitat mapping and another the ethnobotany of Eastern European countries. I have substantial freelancing experience with scientific writing, editing, and desk research. I’m interested in a variety of scientific topics and often do desk research on my own to strengthen and expand my knowledge.
