Four years ago, I docked for the last time on #rvneilarmstrong, @whoi.edu and left that life after 22 years. There were eight women crew, 36% in an industry that runs closer to 2%. All departments #represent. #breakingthebias #womenoffshore

Feels far away, yet only as far as #InternationalWomensDay

On the NES-LTER (@nes-lter.bsky.social) winter cruise aboard the #RVNeilArmstrong, the science team conducted incubation experiments to better understand plankton grazing behavior across the northeast shelf.

Eight women crew members by the aft bridge windows of our ship, the R/V Neil Armstrong.

Throwback to #InernationalWomensDay three years ago, two days before I left sailing on #rvneilarmstrong with @whoi.edu. There were eight of us crew, 36% women in an industry that runs closer to 2%. All departments #represent. Proud to have been a part of this crew.
