Two things that undergrad me wouldnāt have believed about my first two years of grad school:
1 - that Iām not studying neuro and actually Iām studying cell biology??
2 - that I have bangs
Nonetheless Iām STOKED to continue studying speckle biology as a Ph.D. Candidate!!!!

Just published my first op-ed on an issue thatās lived in my drafts and heart for years: #Blackmaternalhealth.
Grateful to @kobedollazphd for co-writing + bringing her expertise as a reproductive health scientist.

It was such a joy to volunteer for this @Pharm4Good Reverse Science Fair led by @DelcySamuelle and Naman Srivastava. Thank you @ResearchAmerica for the civic science microgrant to make this science outreach event possible!
Went to a training this week and the question of whether scientists should be involved in sci-comm came up and only a few of us thought it was necessary. Today was a great reminder of why I do what I do. So enjoy some pics of my high schoolers rocking STEM! #pharm4GOOD

SO BASICALLY PUBLIC LIBRARIES ARE JUST 0.4% OF THE NEW YORK CITY BUDGET, BUT THE MAYOR IS TRYING TO CUT THE LIBRARY'S BUDGET WAY BACK. IāM TALKING $58.3 MILLION! LIBRARIES ARE ALREADY CLOSED ON SUNDAYS BECAUSE OF PREVIOUS CUTS AND MOST BRANCHES WILL BE OPEN FOR JUST FIVE DAYS A WEEK IF THESE CUTS GO THROUGH!! WE ONLY HAVE UNTIL THE END OF JUNE TO TELL @NYCMAYOR #NOCUTSTOLIBRARIES AND SAVE THE LIBRARY.
