Currently working as a video producer at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Liz makes videos promoting and educating audiences on NASA missions. This includes working as the producer for the GOES weather satellite system as well as collaborating with other groups and missions within the agency such as NASA’s GLOBE Observer App, the NASA Electronic Parts and Packaging Program and other Earth Science groups. Currently, she is the lead producer for the newly created series Earth From Orbit showcasing satellite imagery from GOES and JPSS of major weather events and phenomena.

In the spring of 2019, Liz completed her Master’s of Fine Arts in Science & Natural History Filmmaking with her interactive 360-experience about the Beartooth Mountains, A Road Through the Wild.

Previous to finishing the MFA, Liz worked on a variety of projects such as a visitor center film about the Hebgen Lake earthquake to a planetarium/dome film about gravitational waves to a feature film and more.

In addition to producing films to engage audiences with scientific concepts as well as showing how science is done, Liz is passionate about history and archival research. In her spare time, she enjoys photography, weaving and spinning yarn, and exploring other art mediums.
