Identity: Thirty-something American expat scientist living and working at Imperial College, London, England. If pressed, will identify as atheist, liberal and feminist, but tend not to be particularly shouty about any of those things. Prefer to be shouty about things I feel positive about, like space science outreach.
What you are passionate about: Teaching. Remote sensing techniques. Instrumentation for physics and chemistry. Photography. Painting. Being a catmother.
How you use Dreamwidth: I use DW as a mirror to LJ, where I started blogging nine years ago. I'm finding that they're growing into separate communities, though, as I'm more active in science communities on DW and more active in photography communities on LJ.
Most of my posts are public. I'm pretty relaxed about mutual subscription and access as long as you post regularly so I have some idea who you are.
A link to a recent post of yours that is characteristic of your journal or writing style: The Epic Post of Outreach Part 2 is characteristic of my longer posts, while the Generic Meme gives a flavour for my shorter ones.
A link to a journal on Dreamwidth you think people might enjoy reading: I am quite fond of happydork, as she often finds logical ways to express personal/political viewpoints that I share but don't necessarily have the words for.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
