Excited to share what I've been working on with the science community! Starting to get my PhD papers out as I get closer to graduating, and looking into next steps in my career. If anyone has any postdoc ideas, please reach out! 🙂🌱

Our lab is out in force at #Botany2025 - come check out our talks and posters this week in Palm Springs!

Texas Tech featured our research led by @madiraibullock.bsky.social in a video "Echos of Guadalupe" My favorite part is 15 minutes in when a current MS student, Mara Hosaka, describes how field experiences as an undergrad convinced her to go to graduate school. @ttu.edu made it possible!

"This is like a botanical time machine." Texas Tech researchers traveled to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park to collect plant specimens and continue work in the same place as another Tech professor and his student in the 1970s. youtu.be/4r3CeVzNddM?...

University of Nebraska-Lincoln is hiring an Assistant Professor specializing in insect systematics. Opportunities like this are rare and valuable! (Not many jobs like this out there!) Spread the word to anyone who might be interested or benefit. #entomology #science #sciencejobs #bugsky 🧪

@texastech.bsky.social produced an amazing, short documentary on the research we've been conducting in the Guadalupe Mountains National Park for multiple projects, including my Ph.D. If you're interested in checking it out, click here 🌵🏜️⛰️💚 www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r3C...

Plant biologists! We need you! We did set up a quick survey to study why people chose to study plant science. Please check here and shared widely: forms.gle/4X3FUwzxXBx3... #PlantSci

Interested in target capture sequencing? @madiraibullock.bsky.social and I are happy to announce a new service at TTU. Send us DNA, get reads enriched for your probes. Angiosperms353, GoFLAG, Compositae1061 & more! Funds go to grad student stipends and tuition! mossmatters.com/blog/TargetC...

I somehow convinced these crazy kids to follow me into the desert AGAIN 😆 In September, we returned to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park to complete the final collection trip of my dissertation. I'm so grateful for this amazing team and what we've accomplished. #WomenInSTEM #IAmABotanist

Our #GUMO2024 fieldwork trip to Dog Canyon is in the books! A HUGE thank you to the GUMO team. None of this would be possible without their help, they are truly an amazing group of botanists! #IAmABotanist #GuadalupeMountains #Fieldwork #TexasTech

For my inaugural post here, I'm very excited to share this article from Texas Tech about our plant conservation and global change work in the Guadalupe Mountains. Thanks to Allen and Justin for putting this story together! If you're interested in reading, check it out here: tinyurl.com/ttuGUMO
