It’s hard to believe how much has happened since that moment: the excitement of every discovery, the incredible mentors, and fantastic colleagues who shaped my path.

In the ten years since, I’ve had the chance to keep exploring the questions that first inspired me as a grad student, but from completely new angles. I’ve learned that growth in science isn’t just about new techniques or papers, but about learning to collaborate, to mentor, to lead, and to keep being curious.

Feeling grateful for every challenge, opportunity, and friendship along the way, and excited for whatever discoveries and adventures come next. 🌱
