Today #IGave to @UMDscience and @I4C_UMD for #GivingDayUMD ❤️🐢💛
Special shoutout to Teddy the Terp (obviously) and to @sarahmdudley for planning our CMNS Giving Day pop-up today — and inviting Teddy. #TinyTerps
Some of my favorite meetings of 2022 🤩
Loved having the time to take a step back and think about #UserExperience. Grateful to @abbyvrob for the opportunity! – at College Park, MD
Our new college website was a labor of love in 2022! I couldn’t have done it without @kbemb18 who met with me every week for months on end to brainstorm ideas for the site.

Indigenous lands make up ~20% of the Earth's territory — and contain 80% of the world's remaining biodiversity.
So much inspiration from this great #NDiSTEM2022 session led by @amprog’s @TaotaoTasi, focused on indigenous-led approaches in #ClimatePolicy! – at San Juan, Puerto Rico

Absolutely a joy speaking with Sheyda and getting to know her story. One of my favorite interviews to date!
For @math_umd Ph.D. candidate Sheyda Peyman, the link between math and music is undeniable.
Read about Sheyda's work in applied math and #NetworkTheory – as well as her plans to release her debut album later this year: www-math.umd.edu/newsletter-…

“Libraries are the heart of communities.”
Love this @washingtonpost op/ed on the golden age of public libraries — spaces where I’ve always felt at home. It’s a goal of mine to check books out from each @dcpl location!

One reason why #DisruptAging is so important ⬇️
“We fight to look older and have gravitas and be taken seriously, and then there’s this magical moment, of maybe like a year, when you’re good at your age, and then you disappear again.” — @KarenRightNow @sparksandhoney
Unconscious bias permeates everything, says @KarenRightNow. How often have you thought/said/had said to you “You’re so ________ #ForYourAge”? #DisruptAging @sparksandhoney
Words like “ninja” and “coding rockstar" are shown to repel women from jobs in #STEM, according to @jenniferbrown. Resume bias is still a thing, whether we want it to be true or not. @sparksandhoney

“Remember that your skills, your abilities, your insights are extraordinarily valuable. If you’re knocking on the door, and it’s not working, give it a little kick.” — @LesterStrong
