Lizzy Nickell (she/her/hers)

MScx3. Math Teacher, Biology Teacher,

While I joke that I like to collect degrees, I do truly enjoy learning at any level. My background in science has combined with my interest in design to create a precise style and biological interests.

I hope to bring my skills to the world, helping to educate the public about scientific matters with easy to understand graphics and writings.
