Life update: after 2.5 years at USAID, I started a postdoc this month at the NAU Center for Adaptable Western Landscapes to work on arid rangeland grazing research and policy.

I also went to the Grand Canyon for the first time! It's very large!

Since I'm discussing complex topics publicly this weekend, let me share this.

Finances are an issue for grad students. Here's what I've done in my power and privilege; hopefully, this inspires others.
