Life as an academic mom. A napping toddler, chatty patty 6yo, and a paper to write. So I shall write with the toddler in my arms, and 6yo in my ear!

My daughter came with me to the lab on Monday since it was a holiday here and school was closed. She played with my science Legos in the office and left me her construction of how she sees me working. 😍 #AcademicMom #WomenInScience Academic Mama

I helped at my kid’s “Scientist in the School” today and when I told him I’d be joining his class he asked- are you the scientist?! 🥰🥰 #AcademicMama #WomanInSTEAM #WomenInScience Academic Mom, PhD

Toggling btw conference organizing & organizing my kid's birthday party, all happening on consecutive days. Worried that I'll mix up the events & will bring, like, balloons & a popcorn machine rental to Congress & post-it notes and pens to the bday party. #academicmama

It was a beautiful day for writing a grant, riding bikes, and referring fights about stomping on each others bubbles #academicmama

The Joy of Jonah! Just this! No new papers, conferences, blogs, workshops, etc. #ecr #academicmama #AcademicTwitter and above and beyond #transdisciplinarity

How’s it going? Well I’m eating lunch left handed while editing a student’s proposal and my 4 mo just had a massive blowout in my lap #WorkLifeBalance #SundayFunday #momademia

After months of negotiations to designate one small room for nursing moms in our building, through DEI committees of different departments and talking to people as high up as the dean, do you know who finally found a solution?? The assistant to my advisor ❤️ I wonder…

We ran out of snow day activities, so I taught my 8-year-old how to map the social network in her class.

[Apparently, she's more of an ethnographer, because she kept complaining that the rules of the diagram are too rigid to capture the complexity and flexibility of the ties]
