Presented my dissertation at the society of environmental toxicology and chemistry - North America (SETAC) meeting this past week! I study the fate and export of mercury from the glaciers in Alaska. It was great to meet new colleagues and inform them of my research 🏔️ #SETAC2024

Enjoyed sharing my first results with my fellow colleagues and professors in a seminar @UTMSI
Advice for FGLI students: presenting gets easier over time! What helped me was writing a script and going over it until I memorized it so well that I could also be myself when speaking – at Port Aransas, TX
