Laurie Luckritz's dream is to help others understand how beautiful the world is. Studying evolution has been her passion ever since she was first exposed to it at the age of 19. Luckritz is always searching for ways to reach out to the public on important topics in the sciences. Writing, networking, and communicating are critical skills in her outreach strategies as a scientist-in-training.
