Step(h) into Nature now has a science channel on YouTube!

I’ve played around with making videos before, but this is my first time building a nature YouTube channel with regularly updated science and wildlife content!

What can you expect?

I am SO excited for everything that’s coming up on my channel! And I hope that you are too! You can expect:

  • Wildlife Adventures

  • Coverage of Conservation Projects Worldwide

  • Interviews with Scientists & Wildlife Workers

  • New Environmental Scientific Research Made Simple

  • Science Communication Tips

  • Wildlife Careers Advice

And I’m sure I’ll be coming up with plenty more! Let me know in the comments what you’re most interested in, I love feedback so that I can make sure I’m making content that YOU want to watch!

New Science YouTuber Q&A

You can checkout my first ever video above, or click here to visit my channel to watch & subscribe, which I would hugely appreciate!

I asked you to ask me anything on my Instagram last week, and you guys sent in the coolest mix of questions!

I couldn’t cover all of them in one video (mostly because I talk too much…) but I got round the most popular questions, including what my journey through science has been so far, what made me switch from a career in scientific research to one in science communication, SciComm tips and wildlife career advice, and some fun, more personal questions to get to know me better!

Let me know what you think!

The good, the bad, the ug… ok maybe let’s leave out appearances, but definitely share any comments or criticisms you have with me!

Don’t forget that this channel is for YOU! I am just the vessel through which it exists (I hope that is a non-creepy way of saying what I mean).

Share your thoughts in the comments below (please!) or feel free to DM me privately on Instagram or send me an email.

Thanks for watching! I’m so excited for what’s in store (can you tell?!).

Absolutely deliriously happy to announce that I proposed to @connorljd and he said yes! 💍 We met when we both started working on the education team at Bristol Zoo at the same time, so it only seemed fitting to end up outside of the place 😊 Litera
