I was awarded the Louisiana Ornithological Society's Steve W. Cardiff and Donna L. Dittmann Scholarship! I am honored to have received this funding, and I am excited to use it to continue my research on coastal birds and the Mississippi Delta. Thank you LOS!

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for the women who paved the way for me (scientists and non-scientists alike), and my mentees who remind me why I do what I do. I love being a girl AND a scientist, and no president change that.
