About me
Hi, I'm Olive Chon, a science-savvy writer and editor with a love for turning complex ideas into clear, engaging stories. I’m based in Bergen County, New Jersey, where I live with my boyfriend and our two sweet kitties.
I studied biology at Northeastern University and Rutgers University, where I also discovered a knack for writing through my favorite, writing-intensive classes. That blend of science and storytelling has shaped my entire career.
For most of my professional life, I worked at a fragrance material research company, where I began editing research papers, communications materials, and chemical safety assessments. With a sharp eye for detail and a deep respect for clarity, I made sure every piece I touched was accurate and polished. Over time, my role evolved into a more writing-focused one—translating dense scientific information into content that was not only digestible but enjoyable to read. That experience sparked my passion for science communication and set me on a path to help people connect with the science that impacts their everyday lives.
Whether I’m writing for researchers, consumers, or curious minds in between, my goal is always the same: to produce high-quality, compelling content that meets people where they are.
When I’m not writing, you can usually find me enjoying good food, exploring the outdoors, or lifting weights at the gym. These things keep me energized, inspired, and ready to tackle the next big idea!
