🎃 Hope you had an amazing Halloween! My neighborhood went all out — Joe was DJing 🎧, kids battled with lightsabers ⚔️, one house had a Jalen Hurts skeleton tackling a KC Chief 💀🏈, and another had a full Wizard of Oz display 🌪🧙‍♀️.

My favorite moments: 🍬 A kid gave me candy because he thought I was low. 🪄 Parents said their kids waited all year for the duel. Got extra candy? 🍫 You can find a list of great places to donate it to here: bradaronson.com/donate-hallo… 🎃

15 years ago, a science teacher and a scientist began connecting students with STEM role models through handwritten letters✉️. One student wanted to help her dad fix cars. Her pen pal—a mechanical engineer—encouraged her to pursue it. Today, she’s studying engineering.
