CHEMIST FOR THE CULTURE •
I use science to challenge toxic beauty standards and fight for safer products in communities that have long been overlooked.
From evaluating chemicals in hair extensions to sharing knowledge for making safer product choices, I combine chemistry, research, and advocacy to uncover hidden toxics in beauty and household products, and educate communities on how to avoid them.
Research but make it relatable!
Research That Reaches Beyond Academia
I turn scientific work into content that resonates on social media and beyond. I help share research in ways that sparks real conversations and create change.
The Research Her highlights Black women researchers and research topics relevant to wellbeing. Essentially, it's your source for sisterly science. We dive into biology, sexuality, behavioral and physical science, and everything in between. On the podcast I bring realness to keep us improving ourselves and our science. You're guaranteed to love it here!
