A whirlwind trip to @mdanderson.bsky.social to chat to #medphys grad students on my career journey at their annual retreat. Not only was I impressed with the amazing students & their enthusiasm but also with the facility &hospitality! Can’t wait to see what the students achieve in their careers! ❤️

I moderated with Alison Roth in an #AAPM2025 session on “Freelance and side hustle”. It was an interesting session on different career paths as well as businesses that arise in our field. What a way to end the last day. @aapmhq.bsky.social @comp-ocpm.bsky.social #medphys @elekta.com

One of the best things that happened at #AAPM2025 is meeting my mentee Richard Qiu and sharing our story through @aapmhq.bsky.social #mentorship session with @jerinsd.bsky.social. I would recommend everyone to get involved! #medphys @comp-ocpm.bsky.social @elekta.com

#AAPM2025 speedmentoring event was a success! Working with this @aapmhq.bsky.social Mentorship team under @jerinsd.bsky.social’s leadership (who was too busy to make our selfie! 😂) has been a lot of fun and very rewarding… #medphys get involved!

It is lovely to run into people who care… I love our #medphys network!! @aapmhq.bsky.social @comp-ocpm.bsky.social

#AAPM2025 Speed Mentoring session has begun !! Stop by Salon C @jerinsd.bsky.social @youngleebartlett.bsky.social @robinmiller95.bsky.social One of the best and most gratifying events. @mmahesh.bsky.social @davidgammel.bsky.social 🙂

So excited to be at President’s symposium at #aapm2025!! #medphys @aapmhq.bsky.social @comp-ocpm.bsky.social @mmahesh.bsky.social

Starting off #AAPM2025 with a very humid, very sweaty #halfmarathon along Georgetown with Sarah Aubert!! Bring on the #medphys fun!!! @aapmhq.bsky.social @comp-ocpm.bsky.social

I had a wonderful time listening to #medphys presentations, catching up with friends and making new connections at our annual @comp-ocpm.bsky.social meeting #COMPASM2025. Can’t wait to see you all next year!!

An interesting and fun keynote by Karl Otto and a lovely kudos to many Canadian medical physicists that influenced his career… Here we go with #COMPASM2025 @comp-ocpm.bsky.social #medphys @aapmhq.bsky.social

Lovely reminder email received on #COMPASM2025 today! Not only will it have a full scientific program, but there will be a welcome reception, a 4.7km fun run (still trying to get faster!) and more!! Looking forward to seeing my @comp-ocpm.bsky.social #medphys community there!! @aapmhq.bsky.social

#COMPASM2025 is next week!! My first conference of the season! Very excited to catch up with my #medphys friends!! It’s been awhile!! @comp-ocpm.bsky.social @aapmhq.bsky.social @elekta.com

Awesome!! All for it!!!

That’s a wonderful idea though my work is so different now from what I used to do in hospital, it might be more confusing than anything!! My days are usually filled with lots of meetings!!

I started using social media during the pandemic to #communicate/#connect to my #medphys and #radonc communities. I feel less motivated to start this all off again but definitely feel less connected with everyone. For those of you that are on this platform, do you have any advice? Thoughts?

What do I want to say as my first post on BlueSky? I left X as I stopped using it as I was getting fed political messages and I had stopped using it to support my #medphys #radonc colleagues (my main reason for using it). I want to join a healthy community here and promote others to join too!
