This time our guest is Isabelle Kingsley. She is passionate about science communication and education. Isabelle started out as a high school science teacher but later switched gears and worked as a science communicator and educator.
We had a great chat about how she was a born teacher – giving her younger siblings assignments and marking them. Isabelle discovered that her values did not align with her high school teaching job, and she found her passion in education, research and science communication.
