MY
WORK
During my time as a Science Journalist at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) I had the pleasure of writing over a dozen Press Releases, Announcements, YouTube videos etc. for the organisation. It was a joy to shed light on some of the amazing and groundbreaking research being done by astronomers from all over the world with ESO telescopes.
