Bio
Madlen Wilmes
Jen is an asset to any team, and I could not recommend anyone more highly! Jen worked as a remote science writer, and I had the pleasure of managing her work as an in-house liaison at JoVE. Jen's writing is meticulously fact-checked, concise, well structured, and appropriate to the target audience. On top of that, she reliably and efficiently managed several projects in parallel, took the initiative in high-demand times, but also followed directions. JoVE valued Jen highly both as a science writer and editor. So, if Jen applies to your team, stop your search and call it your lucky day.
