Despite my passion for communicating science, I can't find the time to host and maintain a social media channel for it. Instead, I do my best to accept science communication requests from college student bodies and, to a lesser degree, K12 schools. Some of these events occasionally become available online. Here is a fairly incomplete YouTube playlist of interviews and presentations covering my science outreach.
