ABOUT B.YE


Hi! I’m Bridget Ye, a writer and photographer from Hong Kong and Beijing who likes earth science and collecting rocks. Before moving to New York City, I graduated from the University of Edinburgh with an MA (Hons) in Geography. As of 2023, I’m finishing up a master’s in science writing at Johns Hopkins University. I was the Science Communications Assistant at the U.S. National Park Service’s Northeast Coastal and Barrier Network, where I completed one year of AmeriCorps service. I am now the Communications, Design & Language Access Coordinator at NYC Kids RISE.

I have written for the Royal Scottish Geographical Society’s Young Geographer, Japan Travel, and the National Park Service website; and photographed for Film at Lincoln Center and Asian AF. Portions of my science field notebooks were featured in the National Writing Project and National Park Service’s Write Out 2022: STEAM-Powered.
