About Candice (she/her)

Ask me where I’m from and I’ll say “all over!” Growing up as an Air Force military dependent, we moved every few years. I've lived across the U.S., in Europe, and even on an island.

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our kiddo, snuggling our cats, scenic walks, making and sipping coffee, creative writing, reading all the things, cinema, cooking delicious and healthy meals, snapping photos, and creating artisan jewelry.
​
​I also enjoy volunteering with organizations that contribute to science & art education and social good.

I love art and science, and believe the two belong together — not apart.
