It's a beautiful spring day on campus 💜

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!

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 🎂 at least the view is pretty!

Probably the saddest #MeetTheYCC I've posted. @michellebrann.bsky.social is about to rotate off @yccacs.bsky.social 💔 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!

Oh noooooo 😬 the bathroom in my building has some new signage Behind every sign, there is a story 🤢

🥲 my first parts order as PI! #TodayInLab

Just finished the first day of my first semester as a professor!!

At the airport! Off to ACS Fall 2024 for the @yccacs.bsky.social meeting. MDT➡️PHL➡️DEN

#proflife is better with hot cocoa ☕️ First hot beverage in my office! Thanks to @asauers.bsky.social for my new water kettle 🥰

It's a "work in a coffee shop" kind of day ☕️

Bedroom mural ✅️ 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 😊 ☀️🌗🌎

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! 🍻 🍀

New Orleans was looking mighty beautiful this morning 🌅

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!

Today, I visited my ✨️ future lab space ✨️ 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 😴

I had a FANTASTIC visit to Gannon University yesterday! I learned a lot about microbiology and collecting data during a total eclipse before sharing astrochemistry with with the American Chemical Society Erie Section. On my way home then leaving for Florida on Sunday for a week of talks 🌌

Good morning Presque Isle Bay! Excited to share astrochemistry in Erie today 😊

Just arrived in Cleveland! Now for a ~2-hour drive to Erie to give a talk about astrochemistry at Gannon University tomorrow!

✨ GIVEAWAY TIME To celebrate the start of the #GiftingSeason I am giving away a pair of Percy & Ginny earrings ($110 value): 🔭 To enter: 1) follow @sciencesocks.bsky.social 2) enter here sciencesocks.co/pages/giveaway 3) like/repost 🐡 Find my other jewelry here: sciencesocks.co/pages/space-...

Craft fair at NASA Goddard today! #SciArt

My dear friend texted me a wonderful surprise - my art is on the NRAO homepage!!! 😳 thank you thank you thank you, NRAO! This made my weekend!!! #SciArt

I'm finishing up pulling together my first grant proposal and how can researchers fully fund themselves and get anything done??

Excited to speak about laboratory astrochemistry at Astro on Tap DC tonight!

I've been working on saying no to things, so naturally I volunteered to be a floor warden for my building at NASA GSFC. (I mean, how could I say no to wearing a hard hat??) Successful evacuation drill today!

Having a great morning at Carnegie EPL in DC! Here to chat with folks and talk about my cosmic ice work ❄️ ☄️

A rainbow welcomed me to Fort Myers 🌈

Peace out, BWI! See you in two days ✌🏼 On my way to Fort Myers, FL, to speak to a Chemistry Senior Seminar at Florida Gulf Coast University

Computer got fixed! 🥳

I love travel days. Four hours before leaving for the airport, my NASA laptop decides it can't login to the VPN meaning I have to go on-center for IT to fix it so I can access my email and files while I'm away. Yay.

I'm giving a chemistry senior seminar at Florida Gulf Coast University on Friday. I'm trying to keep my presentation to 30 minutes to leave plenty of time for Q&A but I'm having a hard time. I'm usually pretty good at this but I want to share all the things about how cool astrochemistry is. 🥲

Hey ChemSky! I'm giving a webinar for the ACS Younger Chemists Committee on October 3 about astrochemistry, my journey into the field, and what it's like doing research at NASA. Register at the QR code or this link: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...
