It was a great pleasure to participate in the Water for Food Global Conference and receive this award! The work I presented was about the decomposition of cover crops and N release in Eastern Nebraska. Thanks @lucas_canisares and @andreabasche for all the support. #PSA #CE1

Found @1NativeSoilNerd in my midsouth race guide! Maybe you are here and running or biking?! I appreciate the organizers recognition/respect of the Native communities and land -- would love to see more races do the same

At today's #ACSmtg I received the ASA Early Career Award (the one I was flooded with kind messages about earlier this year). I am hugely appreciative of this recognition. I feel I need to share a bit of an acceptance speech so here goes...

I am never going to have the most grants or pubs and nor do I care to. This award is a reminder for me that we need more rewards and recognition for the multifaceted components of our work

Today was even more special in receiving the award when @MarthaMamo3 received an @ASA_CSSA_SSSA Fellow award, and that my parents got to attend the ceremony being close to town 😍☺️

I finished Healing Grounds this weekend, 10/10 recommend. The way @lizwcarlisle has woven together principles of agroecology w/ beautiful stories & lesser told histories, make it an inspiring, enjoyable & important read. I have many new ideas for my teaching and research from it
Next in my list - looking forward to reading and learning more about our food system - a complex web of relationships through the stories brought by @lizwcarlisle
