Liz Neeley is the Executive Director of The Story Collider, which is dedicated to the idea that true, personal stories about science, told live, are powerful. She previously worked as the Assistant Director of Science Outreach for COMPASS, where she created and led science communication trainings for faculty and researchers around the country. Before COMPASS, she worked in Fiji and Papua New Guinea, helping local scientists share their knowledge of coral reefs and conservation, and on international trade policies for deep-sea corals. Her approach to communication is strongly influenced by network science and her graduate research at Boston University on the evolution of visual communication systems in tropical reef fishes.
