Hello. Hello nerds. Welcome to Talk Nurdie. I'm your host Kara

Santa Maria and I don't have a sponsor for today's episode.

So yeah, this will go pretty quick.

But do keep in mind that if you own a small business

or if you are interested in partnering with me at all to promote your wares and your whatnots here

on the Talk Nurdy podcast, you can always shoot me an email to Shop TalkNurdy at gmail.com and we could talk about rates and stuff. Oh and I want to

thank all of you who support the podcast week after week. This week I want to thank John

Cameron Snead and Amanda, I think it's

Wensster, for showing your support via PayPal via the portal on my website,

Karesanamria.comcom and to my patrons on Patreon I want to thank Ron Canoblock, Rob

Barcy, Brian Holden, Jeffrey Sewell, Chuck Pell, and the whole rest of you.

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

Without your support, I don't think I could do the show.

So if you're interested in supporting the show you can head over to

keros Santa Maria.com and click on lay buttons or you can just go straight to

patreon.com slash talk nerdy. All right guys I'm excited to introduce this

week's guest aside from being just an all around cool check and a very good friend

of mine I'm also excited to tell you about some of the cool,

or I guess to have her tell you about some of the really cool stuff that she's been up to.

Rachel Porter is a photographer, she's a professional photographer, and she is doing this incredible portrait series

that will help make scientists and engineers I think a little more approachable

and a little more real and I think that's just such a cool thing that she's doing.
