Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJonny Hyman is a multidisciplinary science documentary filmmaker and maker based in Berkeley with nine years of experience blending research-driven storytelling, music, code, and data visualization to explain complex scientific ideas. As creator and co‑creator on high‑reach YouTube projects (including roles at Verse and Veritasium), he writes, edits, scores, and engineers cinematic visualizations that marry rigorous planetary science curiosity with compelling narrative. He has hands‑on aerospace and embedded systems experience — from hybrid rocket control software and a Python flight simulator to electric aircraft prototyping — and a background teaching STEM and building curricula across programming, electronics, and drone design. Currently studying Planetary Science at UC Berkeley, Jonny brings a rare generalist’s fluency: he moves comfortably between storytelling, software, hardware, and pedagogy to create educational work that is both technically ambitious and emotionally resonant.
