I want to try something new here. Instead of posting purely about academic work or things relating to my research, I want to try posting about some of the events I attend within my community. Graduate school takes up a lot of my time, but I still support causes I care about when time allows. (On my CV, you’ll find a long history of volunteer work and presence at community events.) I won’t post about smaller events or those that occur somewhat frequently (e.g., trail or beach clean-ups). I want to highlight larger events instead.
