Gillian Dohrn

Science Journalist

United States

I graduated from the Science Communication Master's Program at the University of California, Santa Cruz, in June 2024. I'm now writing about climate tech for GeekWire in Seattle, where I grew up.

As an undergraduate at Colorado College, I studied molecular and cellular biology and journalism. I enjoy learning about human health, healthcare, and the intersection of science and society. I love that this job challenges me to dig into new things and broaden my horizons, and I welcome the chance to go where I have not yet been in writing.
