The #BrownBerets 10 point program. Modeled after the #BlackPanthers. Relearning my Chicano history gives me hope especially during these times. Feeding my soul and relearning. #chicano #chicanohistory #chicanx #chicana #chicanoinstem #iamjoaquin #yosoyjoaquin #brownberets

Day 2 of the common garden study went so well! It was nice to get some hands on experience for myself and my undergrads. #STEM #phdlife #phdstudent #ecology #commongardenstudy #screwbeanmesquite #undergraduates #NAU #NorthernArizonaUniversity

My undergrads and I setting up a common garden study in Mesquite, Nevada! Day 1 done! One more to go! #ecology #phdstudent #phdlife #undergraduates #outreach #STEM

Taking some undergrads on a research trip tomorrow. Its a 5 hour drive, so I told them to add songs to a playlist for the drive. They didn’t do it yet so I may have issued a threat. #millennial #researchtrip #research #phdlife #phdstudent #undergraduateresearch #stem #nau #northernarizonauniversity

Phase 2 of my early dissertation research! My helpful undergrads assisting me in my greenhouse experiment setup! #stem #undergraduateresearch #phdlife #greenhouse #ecology

Spent a wonderful flagstaff morning at Mt. Elden collecting soil from areas of high burn severity, low burn severity, and unburned. Had some help from my awesome undergrads #ecology #soil #wildfireecology #phdstudentlife #PhDlife #NAU #northernarizonauniversity #LCE #labofconservationecology

Ready to do some field work tomorrow and collect some soil! #NAU #wildfireecology #phdstudent #phdstudentlife

You can’t tell me “Cyclone” isn’t about a centrifuge. Never leave me in the microbio lab by myself. No centrifuges were harmed in the making of this video. #STEM #LatinoinSTEM #centrifuge #phdstudent #microbiology #NAU #NorthernArizonaUniversity

Shameless brag, but I finished my final project for my GIS class. I created a map of most likely areas where the Screwbean Mesquite will be most likely impacted by the Pathogenic Fungus Neoscytalidium dimidiatum. Could it be better? Yea! But I’m proud :) #screwbeanmesquite #neoscytalidiumdimidiatum

So sorry, but this is hilarious 😂
