Coming back from a busy, delicious summer break to share my whereabouts.

I moved to Chicago.
I earned an MPH from Johns Hopkins.
I now work as a Senior Consultant at Deloitte.
Garbanzo is still the most popular dog I know - like people stop their car to ask about him.

"How many Americans know that the claim that anti-racism is harmful to white people is one of the basic mantras of white-supremacist ideology?" https://t.co/crhh6xBAR8

I love connecting amazing women with one another. The whole always ends up greater than the sum of its parts.

If only human beings recognized all human beings as “like us.” If only racist ideas did not transform peoples of color into “remote” populations. If only “anyone” included everyone.

@aarickawash Morning: Cetaphil face wash, Aveeno exfoliant, Cetaphil moisturizer and Shiseido sunscreen.

Evening: Same face wash and exfoliant, then a couple of drops of tea tree oil and almond oil.

Every week, I also do a charcoal and honey mask from Origins. It's a great product.

@K_Hought I feel that. Because I have two last names, both of us are switching to a hyphenated version that includes his and one of mine.

For folks who married and changed their last name after building a career: do you stick to your old name in professional settings or switch to the new one?

"The F.D.A.’s action means that medication abortion... will become more available to women who find it difficult to travel to an abortion provider or prefer to terminate a pregnancy in their homes." https://t.co/OYnOW7wD6w

The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments Wednesday over whether Mississippi can ban abortions after 15 weeks, the most serious challenge to Roe v. Wade in 30 years.

Here’s a look at what the justices have said previously about abortion. https://t.co/8ZqyvzWICV

"The last fraction of cases can be the hardest to solve...yet too often, that’s exactly when political attention gets diverted... The result: The hardest to reach and most vulnerable populations are the ones left suffering, after everyone else looks away."

What is the probability of me getting a good score on my stats final? If I do well, I should be able to solve that.

When folks think about highly vaccinated places in America

They think Vermont or CT or MA

Those places are good

But not the most vaccinated place in America

So who's #1?

Puerto Rico!

But PR has gotten way too little attention

Its worth reflecting on how they did it

Qualitative research instructor: Awkward silence is a great way to get a participant to share more information during an interview.

Me: Hold my beer.
