Hi! I’m Ellen.
I’m a trained scientist, educator, and science communicator. I’ve engaged audiences of various sizes across the state of Michigan and country.
I have a PhD in ecology and forestry from Michigan State University. I am certified as an Interpretive Guide through the National Association of Interpretation. I also consider myself a “fun-gal” and have my Wild-Foraged mushroom certification through the state of Michigan.
I love creating meaningful and memorable experiences to connect people to the latest science and nature research. Let’s connect! I’d love to see how I can help your group create their next engaging learning experience.
Want to know more about my background?
Scientist. Educator. Communicator.
I am passionate about sharing the wonders of science and nature with my community. My engaging talks are designed for groups, clubs, and libraries, fostering a deeper understanding of the natural world. I truly believe that education should be accessible and enjoyable for everyone, regardless of age or background.
EnviroSpeak’s mission is to inspire curiosity and appreciation for the environment through interactive talks and discussions. I aim to empower individuals to connect with science and nature, appreciate the role and importance of the natural world in their daily lives, and learn how to actively engage with their environment.
I’d love to hear about your specific requirements and discover how I can fulfill your speaker needs.
