Gave a talk today for the first time since January 2025. It feels so good to be back on my feet and talk about my science again!

After three years, I finally submitted my manuscript today. The amount of relief I fee!!! 🥹

I can’t believe I’ve gone from “I can’t stand Boston winters” to running in winter conditions. 🥹❄️

People are DYING. F the people who said we’d be “fine” this time around. It’s not fine. None of this is fine. I can’t believe people not only voted for this, but continue to support the oppressive fascist entities.

Man, I bet the NRA is going to be furious when they hear that jack-booted thugs from the federal government executed a law-abiding citizen for exercising his Second Amendment right to carry a handgun. Any second now, I'm sure. He was a white guy, if that helps? Hello? NRA?

I withdrew my abstract due to health and extenuating circumstances. I hope everyone has a great #AMS2026! Maybe next year.

We need radical change. I cannot believe history is repeating itself.

Life lately (outside of work): winter hiking and snow, lots of coffee and reading, making tortillas from scratch and marathon training 😊

Hi, everyone! It’s been a minute since an update: I am finishing my PhD working with Dr. Frank Keutsch in his research group while continuing to focus on stratospheric transport, chemistry & trends. My journey has been unexpected to say the least. BUT! I’m excited for this transition & to wrap up!

“Why does that person need a mobility scooter, I’ve seen people who are worse and they soldier on” “Why did they use a wheelchair at the airport & then walk onto the plane?” “Why do they have a disability placard they look fine!” The answer to all is it’s none of your business.

I’m very thankful to Stephanie Maltarich at @cires.colorado.edu for this writeup about efforts to reform how scientific fieldwork operates. To make it less hostile & exclusionary, and *actually* safer. From our research talks @ AGU about this subject. The work is ongoing. #disability 🧪

Merry Christmas! 🎄

I’m really glad these practice recommendations were used in the process of my diagnosis. I am even more glad that this can and will help others going through the same process 💜

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned this semester: it’s ok to ask for help when advocating for yourself isn’t enough. I am really thankful to have a supportive department and committee given extenuating circumstances and the very sudden move back to Cambridge (which I as NOT expecting).

Snow in Boston last week 😊❄️

A significant amount of anger and empathy stems from my personal experience with said institution. My heart goes out to this graduate student. How traumatizing.

Just another day of academic institution failing to protect students that stand up for what is right. I’d say I’m shocked, but this continues to happen time and time again.

It's over. Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut. www.dailynebraskan.com/news/adminis...

BREAKING: OU system fails those who stand up for what is right in said system

Some exciting updates: 1) I submitted my 1st manuscript to my co-authors after two years of unprecedented events! 2) I am now going to be advised under Eric Ray and Frank Keutsch (alongside Steve Wofsy) for the remainder of my PhD! Excited to hit the ground running for the next year and a half!

Got my three beverages - including my @mathworks.bsky.social mug - and it’s time to rewrite my manuscript! 💃🏽

Day 4 of knitting every day for the American Cancer Society. Started my project all over because I am a perfectionist! Plz consider supporting or you can support by reposting or sharing this post with others! Thank you so much 💜 @americancancersoc.bsky.social www.facebook.com/donate/14700...

Can’t believe I went from seizures and MRIs earlier this week to … running my first half marathon since 2023 with a 6+ minute PR today! #DisabledInSTEM

I started medication to treat my ADHD today, and I am very exited for what is to come 😊

Really excited to give a talk over my work titled “Mean Stratospheric Age of Air from Satellite Observations of N2O and Tracer Correlations” at AMS in Houston in January!!! I love talking about my science and how cool it is! #AMS2026

Taking much needed time away to relax and hike after a big week and to feel refreshed for paper edits this upcoming week. Happy Fall, y’all. I hope you all have a lovely and restful weekend! 🍂🍁🎃

Never a dull day at Harvard. I can’t believe that I have to write a post-it notes because someone stole my food 🥰

What it’s like to have some sort of seizure disorder as a graduate student: I could barely talk and use my brain during office hours today. It’s so embarrassing to not be able to be as effective and helpful as I want to be for my students. #DisabledInSTEM

After trying to see a neurologist for 9 months, I finally got to see a neurologist and was told that my seizures are real, likely non-epileptic & VERY likely triggered by PTSD starting almost a year ago. I can finally breathe and start making progress toward an official diagnosis #DisabledInSTEM 1/

Enjoying my weekend hiking trip in New Hampshire 🍂🍁🥰 The colors aren’t as vibrant and the leaves are dry and falling instead of turning due to a huge drought this summer, but the foliage is lovely nonetheless!

Views from Vermont when I was driving from OKC to Boston on Monday 🍁🍂

I’m finally getting disability accommodations for the first time and I am so relieved. Usually there’s documentation to send to Harvard. I told them about my seizures and underlying health conditions and they have been so helpful and understanding as I try to get a diagnosis #DisabledInSTEM

I did my best with my shorts and accessories! I don’t identify as Indigenous, but I’ve been taking time to return & reconnect with the culture & customs that were taken from my people. I hope today serves as a reminder that we continue to amplify stories and voices every day and past them forward 🧡

For #OrangeShirtDay, donate to give joy to Native kids on my Winnebago Reservation. Our children were once stolen from us & many didn’t return others did with immeasurable trauma. Uplifting community events bring priceless healing. #EveryChildMatters www.zeffy.com/en-US/donati...

Fall is in full swing in New England! 🍁🍂 Photo taken in the White Mountains in New Hampshire this past weekend

Hi from Cambridge! Excited to be back at Harvard in-person to finish my PhD (and to experience fall and summer in New England)! I took this “first day of school” pic for my mom!

It’s been difficult to explain the onset of a new chronic illness (non-epileptic seizures where I’m waiting for an official diagnosis) to my committee. I’ve said that: the PhD takes time and science takes time. One day at a time! #DisabledInSTEM

I couldn’t have imagined that I would build such a beautiful community over the past 11 months that I now consider my second family. These people showed up to say goodbye, when really: it’s a see you later! ❤️

In honor of losing both my dad and grandmother to this disease, I've started a team to help raise awareness and fundraise for this year's @alzassociation.bsky.social Walk ("If You Feel It, Chase the Alzheimer's Cure"). The walk is set for Saturday, Nov 1. Any support is greatly appreciated! #ENDALZ

Good morning from Norman! #OKwx

Quick & unexpected career update: I’m moving back to Cambridge/Somerville to finish my PhD in-person at Harvard w. a trio of co-advisors Marianna Linz, Eric Ray & Steve Wofsy in 3 weeks! I’m continuing my work on stratospheric composition, dynamics + transport. I’m excited to return to New England!

When you make a raspberry cheesecake, but you’re also an atmospheric dynamicist and realize there are cyclonic and anticyclonic raspberry eddies on said cheesecake 😂

Another day, another sunset behind Walmart ☀️ #okwx

My office setup is almost complete 👩🏽‍💻🌱

I am honestly shocked it took until this administration for folks to see Harvard for what it truly is

I can’t wait to see if I finally have answers for my chronic health issues when I have a neurology appointment in November that I scheduled in May!! Flare ups are so fun!! #DisabledInSTEM

Functional symptoms are real. They are not your fault. They are not "all in the mind". A short thread on a long misunderstanding. 🧵1/10

I moved to Norman isolated and heartbroken. Little did I know, I gained a once-in-a-lifetime community that I will cherish for the rest of my life - I have never felt so loved & supported. Shoutout to Cameron for throwing a lovely gathering w. beautiful people Here’s to another year around the sun🌻

Not to mention the unspoken expectation(s) for us to lead these initiatives all while we are trying to survive, balance research, and navigating systems that don’t have our best interests at heart, hence the ‘expectations.’
