About me

Gender Female
Location Oxfordshire, United Kingdom
Introduction I'm a science geek who loves all things related to astronomy and astrophotography. I've loved astronomy my whole life, but in 2011 I completed the astronomy GCSE then went on to complete the Open University Certificate in Astronomy and Planetary Science. I enjoy writing science blogs and articles and have written articles for Sky at Night magazine. I am passionate about outreach and regularly give astronomy and astrophotography talks to groups of children, astronomy societies and camera clubs. I run the UK Women in Astronomy Network. When I'm not doing astronomy, I play bass guitar and sing backing vocals in 2 local bands. I am also slave to our 4 gorgeous cats!
