Melissa once told her sister that she hated editing and never wanted to do it again. Ten years later, she graduated from Brigham Young University with a BA in editing and publishing. In her time as an editor, she’s worked on content from American Pika behaviors to Bitcoin to women in science fiction; now that she’s with the Neurology Department, she spends her time making complicated ideas clear and accessible for multiple audiences. When she’s not hunched over her computer working, Melissa enjoys getting her friends to drive her around, trying out questionable yoga poses, and talking inappropriately during movies. Her favorite punctuation mark is the parenthesis (though she’s also a sucker for a semicolon).
