Hey #AAS247! Would love to chat building a cosmic ice experiment at a small liberal arts college at my poster on Monday at 9:00 or after my talk at 11:00 (Room 226C)! Open to advice, ideas, or venting about the challenges of building a lab π
Last-minute plug for this workshop! Can't wait to share @scixcommunity.bsky.social with folks at #AAS247!
Merry Christmas! Enjoy this community-drawn chemis-tree!
It's a beautiful spring day on campus π
Made it to San Diego for #ACSSpring2026 late last night! SoCal greeted us with a spectacular sunset. Looking forward to connecting with folks!
Come join the YCC and ACS on Campus from 7-10 p.m. on Sunday, March 23 at Hidden Craft for some light bites and drinks! #ACSSpring2025
A bit late but this is my lunar eclipse photo from the 9ther night! Took me about 30 minutes to hold my phone steady enough to capture this through my backpack travel 'scope. The kiddo enjoyed getting up at 2:30 am for the view too!
Come check out all that YCC has to offer at #ACSSpring2025 in San Diego in a couple of weeks! We can't wait to see you there!
A worksheet showing a broad and closeup shot of the Orion Nebula surrounded by 5 stickers. The stickers show artistic representations of observations from submm, x-ray, near-, mid- , and far-infrared telescopes
It's a good thing I checked my supplies because I'm really short on some of the stickers. I have an activity where we use stickers of the Orion Nebula created by @livwithoutlimit.bsky.social to show the importance of using different wavelength observations.
Spending my birthday sipping an overpriced airport coffee while waiting for my delayed flight to South Carolina π at least the view is pretty!
Probably the saddest #MeetTheYCC I've posted. @michellebrann.bsky.social is about to rotate off @yccacs.bsky.social π Thank you, Michelle, for all you've done for YCC!! We will miss you at YCC but look forward to seeing what you do next within @amerchemsociety.bsky.social!
Orange sign on mirror that says, "Do not vomit in sink. Use toilet."
Oh noooooo π¬ the bathroom in my building has some new signage
Behind every sign, there is a story π€’

I am so happy with how this turned out!! My spouse and I wanted something that would bring an atmosphere of tranquility to our bedroom in our new house, and I think I did a good job accomplishing that!
Had a great time speaking at the American Chemical Society headquarters last night for the Chemical Society of Washington's dinner lecture!
It's cloudy up in New York but I can't wait to experience totality - clear skies or not - again π
βοΈππ
It's almost total solar eclipse time! Which means time is running put to get your glow-in-the-dark eclipse pin before April 8! #SciArt theskyisnotthelimit.org/sciart/total...
Finally flew Southwest on a free drink day! π» π
New Orleans was looking mighty beautiful this morning π
Despite what my clothing and luggage suggest, I am off to #ACSSpring2024 strictly for @yccacs.bsky.social and NOT to be a space nerd.
Congratulations, Olivia!! The Chemistry department is lucky to have you!
Thank you, Zev!
Today, I visited my β¨οΈ future lab space β¨οΈ at Dickinson College, where I will be joining the faculty as an Assistant Professor of Chemistry in Fall 2024!
In Atlanta for the American Chemical Society Leadership Institute! I had a great day networking, hearing from other leaders, and thinking about what I want for my service in the next year
Today I gave talk #6 of 8 on my Southwest Florida trip! The last two (at public libraries) are tomorrow, then it is home Sunday before taking a looooooong nap π΄
