Hi, I’m Teresa Carey.

I’m a science journalist and podcaster seeking stories that draw on the intersection of science, culture, and heart, providing a new perspective on the world. 

Here are some things that are currently keeping me busy: 

• I’m a National Geographic Explorer investigating the relationship between traditional wisdom and sea turtle conservation. 
• I host Technoptimist Radio with Next Wave Radio, and co-host The Morning Muster. 
• I cover genetics and the climate. My work can be seen on air and in print at Buzzfeed, NPR Weekend Edition, Smithsonian Magazine, PBS NewsHour, and more. 
• I am a U.S. Coast Guard licensed captain and the managing owner of Morse Alpha Expeditions. 

• I’m on the National Association of Science Writers Information Access Committee, and the Editorial Advisory Board 

• I study dance and circus acrobatics.
