      All my days are different. Most days I work in the Zooniverse office at Oxford University – but sometimes I’m off visiting places (Royal Observatory Greenwich, Seattle and Chicago are recent examples).

      When I’m in the office I am often writing computer code – either writing or changing one of our websites at zooniverse.org, or writing computer code to handle data from those sites. Sometimes I’m working on projects outside of the Zooniverse, working with other scientists from other universities towards a paper. A also go to a lot of meetings during the week – some online and some in person. In addition to this I also like doing public events – like I’m a Scientist!

      Every day is different 🙂
