Also have been very busy. I was invited to come back as adjunct faculty next semester at @SIUE @PublicSiue I guess they liked me 🙃 #PublicHealth #HigherEd #ProfessorD

There is something truly wonderful about having your former professors say they’re proud of you 🥲

Just wrapped up a call with my dissertation committee and I’m just so grateful! They really are the best team I could’ve assembled. Supportive. Encouraging. Constructive. Dynamic in their own right. ❤️ #RoadToDrD #DreamTeam #DrPH

Yesterday I spoke to senior students from my alma mater. They gave feedback on what they learned from the presentation & one student said “I learned I want to be Demonica when I grow up”. Don’t be me. Be better than me. ❤️. #SIUE #PublicHealth #EachOneTeachOne #GiveBack #iLead

Submitted my dissertation proposal today. Defense in 2 weeks. It’s happening for me! #journeytoDrD #DrPHcandidate

[Demonica Jones, DrPH, MPH, MSW (she/her) @demonicaj2]

I think I just decided to change my theoretical framework of my dissertation proposal. The one that I’m defending in 4 weeks. Yes that one 🥴. #AcademicTwitter #lifeofadoctoralstudent #clearlycrazy

Representation is key! I don’t do that I do for me! I’m a nobody. I do it for the community. I do it for the culture. I do it for the black and brown girls like me.

[Demonica Jones, DrPH, MPH, MSW (she/her) @demonicaj2]

I’m really enjoying teaching as an adjunct this semester. I’m learning and growing so much!

[Demonica Jones, DrPH, MPH, MSW (she/her) @demonicaj2]

I received notification of my first publication. No big deal except very big deal!
