On stage, she’s sold out science comedy shows and performed at comedy festivals across Colorado, and has been a guest on many comedy and health podcasts.
She’s also Executive Director of Science Riot, a non-profit that trains STEM professionals in stand-up and produces science comedy shows across Colorado.
