Liz Neeley

Liz Neeley is the founder of Liminal. 

From 2015 to Aug 2020, Liz was the executive director of The Story Collider. She entered the storytelling field after a decade of work in ocean conservation and science communication. From 2008 to 2015, she worked as the Assistant Director of Science Outreach for COMPASS, and was affiliate staff at The University of Washington. Before that, she had focused on locally-managed marine conservation in Fiji and Papua New Guinea, and on international trade policies for deep-sea corals at SeaWeb. Her approach to communication is influenced by her graduate research at Boston University on the evolution of visual communication systems in tropical reef fishes. She was on the advisory board of the CommLab at MIT 2015-2017, and on the advisory council of Ensia magazine from 2016-2018. She currently holds a Lecturer appointment at Yale University through the National Neuroscience Curriculum Initiative. She is on the organizing committee of the 2019 National Academies of Science’s Sackler Colloquium on the science of science communication. In 2018, she commissioned and edited the peer-reviewed “Stories  from the Frontlines of Conservation” series at PLOS Biology. She was a contributing author to Science Blogging: The Essential Guide (2016), Effective Risk Communication (2015), and Escape From the Ivory Tower (2010). Find her on twitter at @LizNeeley.
