Joined the faculty writing retreat at the UC Botanical Gardens, and so inspired to see colleagues typing away and conceptualizing their masterpieces.
Thanks Lorena Oropeza, Ilona Yim, and Karie Frasch for organizing this! Wonderful to meet Catherine Ceniza Choy, a trailblazing Filipino academic!

Really happy that my book, Subtle Webs: How Local Orgs Shape US Education, was celebrated with other books by first-time Asian and Asian-Am authors!
It's a real honor for it to be alongside other books and authors I admire. And we even had a cake with all our book covers!

You can buy the book at 30% off: bit.ly/subtlewebs (code: AUFLY30). Amazon says it only has one stock left, but I'm not sure if that's a FOMO tactic.
