As an introvert, I feel like I’ve prepared for this moment my entire life. It’s finally my time to shine #socialdistancing (please protect yourself and those around and stay home)

Since there is an increase in #handwashing there is an increase in #water wasting. I learned this song in elementary school so I remixed it for y’all! #COVID19 #SciCom #BlackAndSTEM #AcademicTwitter #Conservation

I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve accepted my first post-grad field job!! I’ll be monitoring the effect of prescribed fires on marsh bird reproduction down in the Gulf Coast of Florida with the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission. Very excited for this next chapter

NEW STUDY: Permafrost thaw's contribution to climate change may be *double* what we once thought.

Top Arctic scientists spent years figuring it out. And they call the estimate conservative.

It's not getting much attention. It should. My @natgeo story (1)

Today marks the end of an era: I successfully defended my Honors Thesis, bringing both this project that I poured myself into over the past year and my undergraduate career to a close! 👩🏻‍🎓

How do animals meet challenges posed by their environment? This student-faculty research team investigates both in the lab and the field.

I am so inspired by @SarahKnutie and the work she and her students are doing. Her lab is awesome, and I’m thrilled that I got the chance to visit and learn from her and @Mack_Watkins33. Their excitement about parasites is contagious.

Big shout out to @Mack_Watkins33 for streamlining our protocol and training @EmmaStierhoff. I’m so lucky to have a great collaborative lab!

Super fun to host & train @EmmaStierhoff this week in the lab. Here she’s looking for nest parasites.😳🐣

Emma is doing her UG thesis in @MWButler2’s lab @LafCol!

She’s also looking for a #consbio masters! She’s AMAZING!
