I had a lovely time seeing SIX the Musical for the first time tonight. What a great cast!

Had the pleasure of visiting Bayer Crop Science, sharing my research, and learning from industry scientists across the ag R&D ecosystem.

I am currently in St Louis Missouri for my FFAR cohorts last group professional development meeting. We went to the Missouri botanical gardens today and had an incredible time.

COVID is sweeping our campus and there's at least three variants I've heard are affecting students. I caught the one that causes stomach issues and gives you flu like symptoms without fever. Wild y'all! Get vaccinated.

I have had a great first few days at #ESA2025 here in Baltimore, MD. So far I've had the incredible opportunity to catch up with a local friend, see lots of amazing science talks, present my Fusarium endophyte work from 2022, and co-moderated a translating science to policy session.

Headed to @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social in Baltimore, MD this week. Come hear about my work on plant development and management style as drivers of Fusarium communities in corn leaves. I'll be presenting Monday at 1:30 pm as part of Disease and Epidemiology 1.

Fascism breeds bad science. I stand strong against the Trump administration's actions against science, education, health, and the American people.

Feeling very trans and queer today in the flowers. 🌹💕☺️

Stand Up for Science DC ❤️✊

I had an amazing week speaking to Northeast senators and congressmen about the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (FFAR) in the Farm Bill. FFAR is important for agricultural research collaborations between the public and private sector in the U S. Thank you to everyone who talked to us.

Still doing art because joy matters. Check out this lil eat and his mato 🐀🍅❤️
