About Susanna Harris
What does it mean to help scientists communicate?I work in engagement and relationship building across the scientific research ecosystem, translating cutting-edge research into accessible and engaging materials for a range of stakeholders. Through real-world experience and professional training in written, oral, and digital communication, I am comfortable speaking to rooms of 5-to-500. I approach scientific outreach, whether to investors or kindergartners, through the lens of inquiry-based learning; through charisma and compassion, I can persuade others to reevaluate their beliefs and opinions towards new technologies and divisive world challenges.As the founder and CEO of Community Balance LLC, I created PhD Balance and lead a team of volunteers to support an international community of academics. Feel free to send me a message with any questions, comments, or cool ideas.
