I do space communications by day & crave good friends, food + wine by night. 🚀🏳️‍🌈🤓 Tweets are mine & are moments from my life. They don't represent @NASA

Congrats @SpaceX team and @elonmusk on a hell of a V3 Starship launch. One step closer to the Moon…one step closer to Mars 🇺🇸

Get. In. My. Belly. Sheng Jian Bao are tasty bread buns stuffed with soup and pork, steamed, then pan fried. The way the soup is absorbed into the bread and the soft yet crispy textures... yum! 🤤

@lisaomalleyca I like keeping up with friends on it personally so didn’t disconnect completely but I’m back...

[Jason Townsend @jtowns]

After switching jobs and no longer needing to be on social media 24/7, I’ve spent the last month in a semi-digital detox. Haven’t posted a ton and have spent more time trying to be present. It was really nice. Now I will be slowly resuming personal social posting...

Getting all the autumn vibes when visiting family recently in Annapolis 🍂
