Thank you so much for having me! I had the best time!!
Yeah I would love to! ☺️
That’s amazing! I’m so glad you also got help from TRIO. It’s such an amazing program!
#AAFS2025 was so fun! While I did get food poisoning the last day 😭 the few other days there were amazing. It’s always so great seeing online friends!
Life has been busy lately! I had the amazing experience of being an advocate for #TRIOprograms in DC. Sharing my story with senators was a great experience. Without TRIO I would not be where I am today.
Growing human proximal tubule cells is always so interesting. These fuzzy areas are called domes. They form when the cells are actively transporting water!

Amelia discovered the space under the fridge today. She has crammed all her toys in there and tried fitting herself as well.

Today was the last day of the semester for the forensic capstone students! They each took the stand for mock court room testimony. I had a great semester with them and I’m excited to see where they go!

I can’t wait to finally get to meet you!!
Sometimes it’s good to stop and smell the flowers or just observe how adorable Brunner’s Glands are 🤩. #pathart #pathsky #artsky #GIpath

Yay!!
GO!! Registration is still open. I will be there Tuesday-Saturday.

I am all set to go to AAFS in February! Can’t wait to see everyone in Baltimore.
Who is all going?!

The beautiful morphology of the Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma makes for a pretty sweet phone wallpaper. #pathsky #pathart #pathology #medsky
I just scheduled my second interview for medical school! Just waiting to hear back from 11 other schools 🤞🤞
I actually don’t work directly with that kind of tech, but the post docs in my lab do! I will ask them and let you know what they say ☺️
For my research I grow RPTEC/TERT1 cells, which are immortalized human proximal tubule cells. Then I grow UROtsa arsenite transformed cells (pictured below) which are immortalized cells from the human urothelium! Using arsenite makes this a great model for bladder cancer.

That is so sad. I can’t even imagine how frustrating that all is. If there’s anything I can do to help please let me know!
This is crazy. Where I’m at cost of living is very low and I still make more than a majority of the grad students there. You all deserve so much more!
