Writing, editing, and producing science stories -- and leading the teams to ship them reliably, at scale.
Teresa Carey is an award-winning journalist, editorial producer, and media director specializing in science content—podcasts, video, and digital features—delivered on broadcast cadence for major platforms including Warner Bros. Discovery, NASA, and PBS NewsHour. She most recently led end-to-end editorial operations for WBD's Curiosity Weekly, overseeing writing, production, and delivery.
Her career began at sea: as a USCG-licensed captain with 25,000+ miles logged, she founded Hello Ocean, a science media and research organization whose expeditions contributed to the discovery of a new subspecies and helped secure a temporary moratorium on offshore drilling. Her work as a National Geographic Explorer examines the intersection of traditional wisdom and conservation science. She now runs Morse Alpha Studios, producing media for clients including the University of Michigan and the National Recording and Preservation Foundation.
