Manasseh is currently a graduate student in the Creative
Writing Masters of Fine Arts (MFA) program at the University of Wyoming.
“I’m getting my MFA in Creative Nonfiction Writing and
Environment and Natural Resources,” she says. “I’m focusing mostly on weaving
science into narrative.”
Manasseh is excited to work with Wyoming EPSCoR, and is
looking forward to learning more about how to integrate science and communication.
“One of my big focuses with writing my thesis is getting
closer to solving the riddle of how to communicate science to people in a way
that they can relate to it,” she says. “I think that I’ll be able to get a lot
of insight from this position into getting closer to figuring out effective
ways of communicating science.”
Along with writing, Manasseh also enjoys skiing,
backpacking, running, biking and traveling.
Welcome to the team, Manasseh!
