2024 was a mixture. I got my PhD, had my first publications, including a book chapter, gave talks in some of my favourite places, and completed a research fellowship. But, that came with a lot of stress and precarity. I'm very happy to go into 2025 with a stable non-ac job with wonderful people!

First in-person summit of the new job. Brain very confused by seeing colleagues I full 3D, and buzzing from lots of conversations. Also had to wear extremely stylish and professional slippers the whole time due to an injury. Overall success?

Obviously had to have a little photoshoot with my thesis, now 100% done, complete, handed in. So grateful to all the people and institutions that allowed me to have this amazing experience. If anyone needs me I'll be staring lovingly at my thesis all day

A combination of day 16 & 17 of #ResearchAdvent, my Christmas reading list, one for pleasure and one for review, both of which I find to be nourishing and restful in their own way. Started The Quickening first, finding it compelling & beautiful
Bonus: my dog 'helping' me read

Day 4 #ResearchAdvent - conferences
Not sure what to put here, so using it as an excuse to share photos from my favourite conference yet - SCAR humanities and social sciences workshop in Lisbon. Lovely place, lovely people!
