This has been a year of figuring myself out and frankly, as much as it has sucked, it's been very beneficial. I still love research. I still love writing. I still love teaching. But I needed time to feed other interests/desires.

Our manuscript has been accepted to a Q1 #PublicHealth journal and I am so emotional. I am so proud of my small, yet mighty cohort of #globalhealth graduate students who dedicated their studies and time to advancing #menstrualhealth #education in Cambodia 🥺— will share more as it progresses!

My partner Pedro is off the bean-juice and my attempts to support him through #gastro-solidarity have been a nightmare. I only drink MAX 2 little coffees a day. I need to stop. Italy changed me...maybe for the worse.

I was thinking about getting into writing-for-me-writing again. I feel like Twitter used to be that space for me. A space of overflowing thoughts and sprawling takes. I would write them up and share them. Now the sky is blue, and I am here, so I'll start doing that again!

It’s been a rough few months preparing for this international move. It’s been just over a week of me living in Portland and I’m feeling lots of feelings. On the brightside, we are 20k words away from finishing the book. ✍️

I've been having a hard time on the #job search at the moment with everything going on in the U.S. I'd appreciate any leads on #copyediting either in #food #health or #tech as I've spent 5+ years doing that. I'm nearing the end of the #book writing sabbatical so please send me luck + leads, thanks.

Spilled iced coffee all over my laptop because a bird nearly flew into the window my desk looks out onto. First time I’ve ever done this so fingers crossed it boots up tomorrow 🤞🏽 What a chaotic way to end day 🥲

I am so behind and so “out of the loop” because I’ve been writing and doom-working(?!) but I wanted to say that I had a phenomenal time at #sfaa and it was so fun + inspirational for me to meet my #anthro pals from the old Twitter times in-person 💖— best (and first) anthro conference ever 🥹
