"‘'Twas the night before grant deadline, 7:15. Many creatures were stirring, thanks to caffeine. The comments accepted, the references done, In hopes someone might fund my first R01."

Honored to have received #MOSAIC #K99 Pathways to Independence award! I’m grateful for the support of my mentors, colleagues, & collaborators. This brings me one step closer to my dream of making meaningful contributions to academia & nurturing the next generation of curious minds & innovators.

One of my favourite poems.
