About Diana L. Pomeroy
I'm an artist, author and educator.
I have over 15 years of experience in higher education. I've impacted hundreds of people in the classroom with my enthusiasm for the prehistoric and the Earth system. I'm a true self-starter and lifelong learner. I strongly empathize with my audience and I lead with compassion. I enjoy presenting my work through public speaking, workshops and via YouTube.
I thrive as a creative person. I'm a self taught creative with several talents--I've been a musician--a violinist--in my past, and I am currently a fiction writer and a visual artist. I enjoy customizing toys in my spare time, in particular My Little Pony. I strive to make accessible, relatable stories and art pieces that bridge the gap between scientific accuracy and magical fantasy.
​
I love to travel to new places, collect rocks and minerals, dabble in various music genres, religions and belief systems, and I'm of the notion that, as Celine Dion sang, the heart does go on beyond our corporeal existence.
​
I live with a chatty and energetic Russian blue cat named Mochi in Southern California.
