About Me

I'm Jo and I describe myself as an Earth Scientist, World Traveller, Baker Extraordinaire, Science Communicator and Budding Entrepreneur.

​

I studied geology at university and now choose my holiday destinations based on where the volcanoes are erupting or where the coolest fossils are to find.  In my spare time I like to bake and love making all sorts of treats for family and friends.

​

In 2015 I was made redundant and whilst trying to find a job I started this blog.  I also started working on an idea I had been thinking about for a few years of combining my love of science and baking.

​

In 2015 participated in an Elevator programme where I started to learn about setting up my own business and SciRecipes was born.  In 2018 I set up a charity called The GGR Foundation as a way of supporting more people to achieve amazing things in science.

​

So if you want to travel somewhere new, eat something different or learn something amazing this site will have something for you!
