Hello friends!

I’m honored to have been featured in the 500 Women Scientists #MeetAScientist series and since part of what I talk about is this blog I thought it might be of interest to you. Here’s the link.

Quick update on fitness goals – I’ve definitely been amping up the exercise and I’m feeling pretty good! I don’t look any different yet but my physical and emotional state (and my stress level) have definitely improved and that’s the name of the game. If that’s all I end up getting out of this exercise and fitness thing then I’m going to call it a win! Also, my daughter went jogging with me the other night and said she’d like to start running with me.
