15 years ago I attended the Exxon Mobile Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp where I met my best friend @_luvce. Today I got to reconnect with Dr. Diola Bagayoko, the man who introduced me to engineering. It was an honor to be called Dr. Manuel by him. – at New Orleans, LA

My last grad school paper is finally out! If you were at my defense, you got a snapshot of my main graduate project. If you were a little confused, take a look at our work in @Biomac_ACS @aimeesanford19 @jenheemstra @HeemstraLab

Happy #mentalhealthmonday! Last week I touched a little bit on the resources available to those in academia, but what if you don't work in academia? Good news, there are also resources available to those who are not in academia! #selfadvocacy #workforceprotection

As the craziness of a new semester ramps up, never forget to #embracefailure and give yourself grace.

As a black woman on a national science show, I intentionally wear braids and my curly Afro to normalize black hair in stem. In this pic, I’m wearing cornrows to study plants being sent to space at NASA.
