Self-love is revolutionary. We cannot fight for others when we're fighting a war inside ourselves. Compassion is a power that we first bestow on ourselves & then give away through our actions—to people, to our planet. When we recognize this, that is when love becomes our legacy.

We just published a correspondence in @NatureEcoEvo on Hidden figures in ecology and evolution!

I’ve been having discussions with my advisor and lab group about actions that can be taken so that Black graduate students (and other minorities) feel safe, welcomed, and supported. Here’s what I/we have come up with so far

Happy #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth. Everyday this month I am sharing a history lesson.

And in response to the racist garbage @nbcsnl aired Saturday, today’s lesson is about the true story of Pocahontas. #WeAreStillHere

This is a great piece! Especially if the glass obstacle course is not an issue in your career.

What an impactful and meaningful presentation at #NSFEPSCoR2019. The panelists did a beautiful job addressing some difficult topics!

In #scicomm, we need to replace the "you should know this" mentality with "I'm happy to share this knowledge." The former condemns scientists from admitting gaps in knowledge while the latter promotes a supportive environment for all to grow (which leads to better science!). 2/2
