When joining a small dept @uwdermatology.bsky.social I knew finding a peer grp would be crucial—I’m grateful for a crew of junior PIs @uwiscrm.bsky.social @uwmedicine.bsky.social. At a tough time for #academic #research labs it’s helpful to have supportive colleagues to share good news & struggles 🍻

I was an illegal immigrant for almost all of my childhood. It wasn’t until I was 16 that my family was granted political asylum from Guatemala, a process that took a decade to achieve.

Obtaining a social security # allowed me to enter @ucla at 17 for college and @johnshopkins for grad school.
