I’m a small girl who likes plants and double cream Oreos. I spend time reading and watching science-related stuff and when I’m not, I’m usually spending time with family and friends.

About Me:
I’ve always liked finding out about stuff and then telling other people about it and was de-lighted to find that I could be paid to do this! I’m a big fan of bunting and electricity pylons but haven’t found a safe way to combine them yet. I love walking around London, where I live, and can’t wait to do it again safely. I like to try and make any community I’m a mem-ber of a little bit happier and friendlier 🙂
