As scientists, we have a responsibility to engage the public, nurturing curiosity, building community support, and inspiring the next generation of researchers. Outreach serves as a vital bridge between the world of research and society's understanding of it.
I consider outreach an important aspect of my work and am proud to have volunteered my time at events hosted by the University of British Columbia (UBC) and the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory. Below is a list of the outreach events I have participated in, along with any associated resources
Below, you can find a list of events I've been a part of alongside any public resources from those events.
Lunar Eclipse 2025
In light of the upcoming lunar eclipse on March 13-14, we’ll dive into the fascinating science behind both lunar and solar eclipses, exploring the unique geometry of our solar system that makes these celestial events possible. Since both types of eclipses can be observed without modern, complex optical instruments, we’ll take a brief look at the rich history of eclipse watching, spanning more than 2000 years, showing that this fascination is far from a recent craze. We’ll then look ahead to the eclipse of 2025 with practical tips for observing, including guidance on choosing the ideal viewing location.
UBC PHAS Faraday Show 2024
"The Faraday Show is UBC's annual science lecture designed for children and presented by UBC Physics and Astronomy students, staff and faculty. This year we present the fun physics you can find in your house!"
