How can we use the ever-growing world of social media to educate people about volcanoes?? We're joined by volcano science communicator and content creator, Denali, to discuss everything from creating funny and informative videos to battling viral misinformation during volcanic crises.

Denali (they/them) is a graduate student pursuing a PhD in volcanic geochemistry. They obtained a Bachelors of Science degree from University of Florida, completing an honors thesis on mid-ocean ridge volcanism before working as a laboratory technician at the Alaska Volcano Observatory. They now research the evolution of plagioclase ultraphyric basalts in Iceland as a part of their PhD. Denali is very active in science communication and outreach and currently run three different social media accounts focused on increasing public knowledge of geoscience and encouraging young students to pursue a career in the Earth sciences, and promoting equality in STEM as a whole.
