Charlotte Taylor Hartley: The Scientist Who Sparkles ✨

Ever met someone who can take lab coat to runway or explain quantum physics while baking a soufflé? That’s me—Charlotte Taylor Hartley, your favourite Advanced Materials Scientist with flair. 🌟

By day I’m in the lab creating the future one nanofiber at a time. By night? I’m the girl next door who loves baking 90s hit covers on the ukulele or making you the perfect cocktail. 🍹✨

The Girl Who Blends Science & Soul

I was born under a constellation of stars and a slightly bossy Taurus moon, so it’s no surprise I’ve always had a slight obsession with understanding how things work. When I was eight, I took apart my mom’s toaster to “fix” it. (Spoiler: It never toasted again. 😅) That curiosity valued, and led me to a PhD in Advanced Materials Science, and an active research project based on designing smart fabrics, that could one day charge your phone… or make your jacket change colour depending on your mood. 💃🔬

My Not-So-Secret Talent?

I sculpt with molten metal. Yep—while all the other lab coats stick to graphs and equations, I get to play with fire (safely, promise.) There’s something about creating sculptures out of liquid steel that feels magical and powerful, whether it’s delicate leaves or abstract pieces with savage beauty. 🔥🎨

Why Should You Follow Me?

• I’ll make science feel like a conversation with your best friend—minus the jargon and with a lot more passion.
• My lab disasters? They are so loving dramatic (Ever seen a graphene sheet you just laid on a nitro pad literally disappear? Poof. 💨)
• I’ll help you see magic in the mundane. Like your coffee’s surface tension is so incredibly beautiful, but entirely genius. ☕

So if you want a genius BFF that is both Einstein and Elle woods—stick with me. Let’s geek out, but in style. 💖
