Twitter fam, thank you for helping me to find the family of the 9 year old girl from NJ who had the police called on her by her neighbor for collecting lantern flies. I connected with them & invited them to @yale for a Black girl led Science Tour! YesterdayโHISTORY was MADE (1/)
This morning I got the email that my first paper was published in BMC plant Biology. (I'm the second author!)
I am grateful to everyone who has shown me love and support along this amazing science journey. I am so excited for whatever comes next.
What an amazing week!!!!! The Ngumbi Lab grad students attended #EntSoc22 in Vancouver. I heard some inspiring talks, reconnected with friends, and met some incredible people doing important science. @EstherNgumbi @iBioIllinois @uiucEGSA 1/6
Right after birthday dinner, I won 2nd place on my infographic, along with 3 other wins from the hard-working University of Illinois Entomology Department! 5/6
Well. Hands down the best conference - one for the history books!! Shout out to the @novonordiskfond and @ScienceCluster for an extraordinary conference, awarding me as a runner-up for best poster, and getting a bunch of microbial ecologist to dance to Whitney Houston!!
Come by my infographic, and Get a Whiff of This! Learn about the chemical language of Volatilite Organic Compounds at #EntSoc22#JAM22 entry number D3000 from 6-6:30pm tonight! I hand-painted all the organisms using watercolor.

What a powerful morning chart with my students. Thank you Aaron and @ErinnDady. Your commitment to diversifying science and making labs a welcoming place for all, and a place where everyone feels they belong gives me hope.
