Three people stand at a booth with electronics and scientific equipment on a table at a convention or trade show. One person is demonstrating something on a laptop while others observe. Other booths and attendees are visible in the background.

A group of people stands and talks around a table covered with various items at an indoor event. Some people wear name badges. One woman speaks to a man wearing a backpack. The room has many empty chairs and tables.

Eight women stand side by side on a stage, smiling at the camera. They wear conference badges around their necks. The background includes green plants and large insect decorations.

Will be handing out stickers at the @entsocamerica.bsky.social meeting! Come find me or Solomon Hendrix and you will get one of our respective hopper stickers!!

We dressed up as r and k selection for Halloween. Something you can do if the party you’re going to is the EEB grad party.

Designed this little spider hat for Halloween! Posting pattern on Ravelry tomorrow :)

So nice seeing you!

whatever you think of the country as a whole there are still a whole lot of great people here who deserve better than this

I designed a horseshoe crab sweater and published it on Ravelry on National horseshoe crab day! If you ever thought to yourself “man, I really want a hand knit sweater with horseshoe crabs on it” boy do I have great news for ya

Yeah I don’t sell this so I don’t really care about typos as long as it’s not misinformation.

I don’t know how to do that other than pasting an annoying url

Self portrait

Found some horseshoe crabs while wearing my horseshoe crab sweater (and flipped them right side up)!

A neon colored squid on the phone, drawn in cartoon style, glued to a wall, that says Get Squid Facts text SQUID to 1-833-SCI-TEXT

a very cute cuttlefish, a giant australian cuttelfish, looks at the camera, swimming in front of algae covered rocks

a poster that says Plant Native Plants, with an illustration by meg lemieur of purple coneflower, with a bunch of clips with seed bags attached on the bottom labeled "take one and plant"

Sarah holds up a zine that says Philly Biopdiversity Zine in front of a little free library covered in squid, painted blue and pink, shoved in some planters. The zine has a raccoon skateboarding in crocs in front of the love statue (philly icon) with a pigeon sitting on the sign, with the art museum in the background

Back to book pitching, so here I am caring about the # of followers I have 🤦‍♀️

HELLO! I'm a 🦑 scientist on a mission to get people to take action to protect earth's biodiversity.

Alongside others, I use street art, zines, photography, collabs, & more to encourage action.

Tell ur friends 😅

One of my semester projects…nearly done and then it’ll get a less obscured photoshoot

A bearded man wearing a navy blue pullover that has teal leafhoppers knitted in a fair-isle pattern on the yoke and sleeves. He is posing with two leashed dogs (one large and yellowish, one smaller and cream with reddish spots) in front of a harbour with fishing boats and colourful buildings in the background.

I can TALK about nontraditional science communication as an insect knitwear designer and entomologist if you’d be interested in a knit-ology and leafhopper mashup!

YEEEEAAAAHHHHH

Look at this great picture of me wearing the horseshoe crab sweater I designed and knit!

just text and then it’s over, just text and then I can rest.

Time for another testing call!!! Link is pasted in the post below this one, super excited to get more bug patterns (and ant facts) out into the world 🐜❤️ 🧶

Locked in yesterday and finished the painting part of my leafhopper comic. Next…to outline these all in ink, and then add lots of text in illustrator! I managed to ruin my big guy on the left with wet hair but luckily I’d already scanned him in!

The ittiest bittiest babyest leafhopper ever watercolored I think

I post official tester calls on social media (including this one) and I hope you apply!!!

@entsocamerica.bsky.social using AI generated images in its award presentations at the Eastern Branch is really, really embarrassing, especially for a society that focuses on scicomm and science illustration through conference workshops. Really making me reconsider renewing my membership this year.

New sweater in the works!
