Experience
Becki Robins has been writing professionally since sometime during the previous millennium. Her favorite subjects include food, history, and science, and she's especially happy when she can get all three of those things into one article. Becki cooks daily for six people, loves challenging and unusual recipes, and enjoys hunting for hard-to-find ingredients. Becki’s freelance work has appeared in the Atlantic, Popular Science, Smithsonian, Scientific American, High Country News, Undark.org, Science News, Earth Island Journal, and Lonely Planet.
Education
Becki obtained her undergraduate degree in magazine journalism and her master's degree in science writing. Her education as a science and feature writer helps her translate sometimes complicated (and often dry) information into fun, useful, and easy-to-understand stories for non-scientist people.
