My Background

Before I graduated with a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Emory University in 2016, my undergraduate work was done at Barnard College at Columbia University, a liberal arts school in New York City.

I initially began my college career in Manhattan seeking to be a dancer — a lifelong dream of mine. However, when I arrived at Barnard, much to my surprise, I quickly fell in love with Neuroscience. Soon, I changed my major and never looked back. 

After graduating from Barnard in 2009, I moved back to Atlanta — near my family and the home where I grew up — to complete my education at Emory. In 2016, I defended my dissertation on stress-induced changes in anxiety circuitry in the brain and graduated with my P.h.D.

Because of this somewhat unique and diverse background, I bring to the table both a passion for and knowledge of science, but also strong writing skills and a liberal arts education.

My first professional experience in combining these two loves was as an academic editor. I helped fellow scientists from around the world proofread and edit their writing as they sought publication. 

Now, I am thrilled to provide researchers with more in-depth editing and writing support through my own company, In Scripto. 

In addition to loving science and writing, I also love my life as a mom, wife, Peloton enthusiast, and self-identified coffee addict.

I would love to connect with you and learn more about the important work you are doing in the world. You can reach me at SarahDaniel@InScriptoScience.com.
