United States

PhD Microbiologist | Expert in Grant & Manuscript Writing | $18M+ in Funded Proposals | 25+ publications

プロフィール概要

I’m a PhD-trained microbiologist and scientific writer with 10+ years of experience in medical and academic research communication. My expertise lies in microbiology, virology, microbiome science, and the environmental life sciences, with a strong focus on grant proposals, peer-reviewed manuscripts, and technical content for academic, biotech, and nonprofit sectors. I'm currently the lead grant writer at a major university. I’ve supported over $18 million in grant proposals (e.g., NSF, NIH, DOE, Simons Foundation), and have edited and co-authored 20+ scientific publications in leading journals (e.g., Nature Biotechnology, Cell Host&Microbe). I specialize in translating complex research into clear, compelling narratives—whether for high-impact journals or funding agencies—to maximize the impact of your science or product. I'm a native French speaker, so I can translate too. To me, editing is like sculpting—chiseling away until the final piece emerges in its most refined form!
