Using some of my technical theater skills from high school is not something I anticipated doing as the wife of a professor...@coastalgeology packed the house at the Island Theatre on Chincoteague!

A beautiful afternoon on Cedar Island, VA with spill planning & response folks from @USCG Sector Virginia, @EPAregion3, @USFWSSoutheast, VDEQ, @VIMS_News & others! Hoping that a major incident doesn't happen out here, but working hard to figure out how best to respond if it does

Always exciting when a new batch of kimchi is fermenting! @altonbrown do you know where your kimchi is?

[Emily Hein @Sailsandcrayons]

Happy #pride! Experimented with negative space painting techniques for this #watercolor #painting

@SSC_Marketing @TheEDSociety I watched a LOT of tutorials on YouTube on how to tape various joints and then kept trying different things until I found what feels good. Every body is different so I think different things work best for each of us.

[Emily Hein @Sailsandcrayons]

Managing symptoms of HSD can be colorful! I use kinesiology tape to help support joints, particularly my thumbs, so I've decided that I may as well add some color to the world instead of trying to hide. #MyHSDChallenge @TheEDSociety

[Emily Hein @Sailsandcrayons]

Colorful legs today to prep for a longer walk!

@ICanCookThat The Hein boys can step it up when it counts! I didn't get any garnishes on the trays left outside my room last week, but I did get some lovely roses from the garden in a vase! Maybe we need to get sick more often...errr...?🤷‍♀️

Brian the Boxwood got a haircut today and is proudly #ZebraStrong in honor of HSD/EDS awareness month

[Emily Hein @Sailsandcrayons]

@coastalgeology I second this! And it's always a treat to raid Kait's fridge!

[Emily Hein @Sailsandcrayons]

@TheEDSociety Great news! Is there any timeline for when the Global Registry and Repository will be reopened? As a scientist with HSD, I'd love to be a data point!

[Emily Hein @Sailsandcrayons]

I painted this @letsgomakeart #watercolor #painting tutorial help raise awareness of Ehlers-Danlos and Hypermobile Spectrum disorders. I've recently been diagnosed with HSD and am determined to stay #zebrastrong!

⭐️INTRODUCING EMILY HEIN⭐️Emily is a panelist for our Women in Marine Science Career Panel this Friday! Emily is the Assistant Director for Advisory Services at VIMS. She provides marine science-based information and advice to local/state/regional/federal policy makers.

[Emily Hein @Sailsandcrayons]

May is Ehlers-Danlos and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders month. I was recently diagnosed with HSD and am amazed at how little is known about these rare genetic conditions. @Ehlers__Danlos has lots of information if you want to learn more!

@WaterStrider82 gave me the tropical mouse hole decal a few years ago and I decided it needed an occupant! Meet Daisy (the only mouse I want to see in my house)
