Charity Southworth holds a B.A. in Physics and a M.A. in Critical and Creative Thinking. She started off in art school studying ceramics where she had to take a science credit. She chose to take astronomy and instantly fell in love. She then switched majors, studying astrophysics and physics. She conducted research in radio astronomy as well as volcanology before moving into the world of science communication. Having an extensive theater background, science communication felt like home. She has worked professionally as a science communicator for more than six years and works part time at the Charles Hayden Planetarium. Charity's goals in science communication are to forge a better relationship between science and the public through accessibility. She strives to bring science to communities that do not have easy access to it, such as the art community. She firmly believes science can be communicated to everyone in a fun way and continues to explore that idea in her post-graduate work.
