Lizzy Nickell (she/her/hers)
MScx3. I am a recent graduate with my third Masters degree.
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.
