Underwent a smooth operation today and I’m feeling much better!
Thank you for all your kind messages and to everyone that has looked after me these days here in Saudi, specially at the King Fahad Armed Forces Hospital. THANK YOU 🙏🏻
Great Quali from @OllieBearman on his hasty debut (not easy at all) and from Lord Perceval (a.k.a. @Charles_Leclerc )
Good luck for tomorrow @ScuderiaFerrari!
Hey people. It came to my attention that something on my linkedin profile is causing confusion that I want to clarify: I am 2 months away from a JD and I don’t already have a PhD. The PhD is something I started working towards in 2020 and I pursued it jointly with my law degree but when I moved to California last summer and decided that for family reasons we would stay on the west coast, it had to go on pause. I apologize I really should have updated my linkedin page sooner. I’ll still fight for it, but how it gets completed is up to the administration and my principal investigator and what they think is appropriate.
Ultimately, any parent or person trying to juggle hard things has experienced that sometimes you have to make hard choices. My parents have a saying: “do everything it’s a blast.” I enjoy pushing the boundary of the possible and saying yes to more things but also it is important to flex the muscle of prioritization and discernment. For myself I’ve found that learning when to say no or not right now can be more of a skill than saying yes.
(side note, if anyone has a recommendation for how to best express my circumstance wrt the PhD on linkedin, would happily take suggestions as I make the edit)

The other news I wanted to share is I’m a mama to a sweet 4yo boy. Started fostering in 2021 adopted near Christmas of 2022. I’m so lucky — being a parent is the biggest gift and most defining experience there is
that’s my news for now folks 💛
