Kelley Christensen

Research is complicated. Communicating it doesn’t have to be.

At the heart of science communication is storytelling, because it’s through story that we understand the world around us. My specialty is compelling writing and sharp-eyed editing to communicate about science and tech across diverse audiences.

“Kelley got up to speed on our research field, organization, style guide, and production schedule in a fabulously short time. Her ear for editing improves our articles, and her written products are well-researched and clearly written. She’s a quick study and a great colleague. I’m very grateful we found her!”

“It has been fantastic working with Kelley on different pieces related to the science my research group is performing. She is able to navigate the complex technical details of the science to communicate the important aspects of the research in a relatable way, while staying true to the scientific outcomes. She has been instrumental in helping to spread the word about new awards and the research produced by my lab.”

Science Writing

Science isn’t finished until it’s communicated. I take complex subjects and write about them using compelling storytelling and plain language.

Technical Writing

White papers, reports, grant writing and more. You have an audience in mind, and you need a writer to make your message as clear as possible.

Editing

From deep development edits that fundamentally improve a piece to a light copyedit, I’m an astute editor who believes in elevating the work of others for the better, while preserving their unique writer’s voice.
