About Liza Ray

I bring visions that advance science to life. I love to think about how people learn and do science, and leverage that to move the needle on the pace of scientific discovery in the life sciences. I develop and implement strategies - and never forget that people drive everything. I\'ve also worked on my family\'s farm, programmed in R, knew enough Spanish to understand my favorite telenovela, and saw my poems and short stories published. Along the way, I got really good at identifying obscure minnow species, a decent fly cast, and a lot of joy from my two- and four-legged creatures.
