Here are a few highlights of some prior science communication work, including recorded talks (virtual and in-person), podcasts, and interviews.

SciCafe at the American Museum of Natural History (2026) Link to heading

My postdoc mentor, Prof. Xindi Hu, and I co-presented a dialogue on PFAS at the American Museum of Natural History in NYC as part of their 2026 SciCafe series. We touched on everything from their history, exposure and health risks, private wells, environmental justice, emerging PFAS, to making drinking water data more available and actionable, and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s recent regulatory plans.
