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 designed for the public eye. 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 a Master’s education in Environmental Policy and Management (concentration: Fish and Wildlife Management). Lastly, I proudly work as the head writer of Black Flower Science Co.! I aim to grow skills as a science communicator and make STEM education more accessible to the masses.
