My name is Jazmin “Sunny” Murphy, and I am a science communicator and web content writer. Since 2015, I’ve been producing scientific content that is written in plain English. My love for wildlife has influenced my professional and academic aspirations since I was a kid. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Zoology and 21 units of a Master’s education in Environmental Policy & Management (concentration: Fish and Wildlife Management). You can learn more about me and my science writing and reporting work at my website.
