Carmen, Yuki, and I representing @PlesaLab from @UOKnightCampus at #VariantEffect23 ! It's been a pleasure to see the amazing research and to share our work.

@PlesaLab is full of cool surprises!

As a @SJSUScience alum, I am looking forward to reading this book! I am excited to see the impact that these resources make on Latinx students. @maggieb_phd

Yuki, a @PlesaLab student, prepared this dino for @plasmidsaurus ! Sending our samples to them is a great way to end the week strong 🙌

It was such an honor to meet young scholars at @ABRCMS ! I am looking forward to seeing what they accomplish and what their futures hold. Grateful to @UOBiology for giving me the opportunity to attend with @UdPrfrNAgo @sharp_shelby and @RoseSAlsaadi !

Bamboola and The Jungle in San Jose, CA. I think my 4th birthday was here! I had ice cream cake.

Happy upcoming winter break! #sciencegreetings @BioRender

This is what we call a lab meeting! @PlesaLab

Just a beautiful day in Eugene to celebrate becoming a PhD candidate! 🌞

My mom did an internship at NASA Ames research center when she was in college and I used to live close to it. Interesting to see vintage footage of it in this music video. youtu.be/Wx71VahdL-c

My grandma and sister were hit by a car before the quarter started. I've been navigating this situation this month and it hasn't been easy, especially as a second year grad student. Trying to be kind to myself during this time and stay positive.
