Hi, I’m Rae. I’m an aspiring science and nature writer living in the Bay Area of California.
On the day-to-day, I can be found at the radio show This American Life, where I’m on the team that mixes and scores the show. I most enjoy working on stories that are science-y! This one about black widow spiders is a favorite.
Some things I’m currently excited about: a story that I pitched to Radiolab about stem cells and fingertip regeneration is featured in their March 14th episode, Growth. I’m currently in the process of onboarding as a contributor with the fire mapping app, Watch Duty.
When I’m not working or writing, I can usually be found in the Sierra mountains, riding my bike, attending Dr. Daniel Swain’s climate office hours, or eating a burrito on the top of Twin Peaks in San Francisco.
