In honor of #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth, I’m proud to share that my college UF HHP featured my research in UF News! I conducted a pilot study characterizing IPV-related head trauma in military spouses, a population vastly underrepresented in research compared to service members/veterans.

After 20 years of honorable service as a Naval Officer, this amazing man is a civilian again. Can't wait for his first Veterans Day. 🥹😍 I have only been on this ride as his milspouse for the last 8 years, but super proud of him and excited to see what he decides to choose for his next career.

Happy #LaborDay! 🎉 unions! Today, I am remembering my Grammy. She was a devoted union supporter & leader during her working years, & a lifelong Democrat. Also, a single mom raising 3 kids while working full time. She died a couple months shy of her 100th birthday, in July 2017. 💔
An older woman (senior) is in bed in a nursing home cuddling up to a younger woman who is leaning down to be close to her. They are both smiling and happy. An older woman in a wheelchair wearing various shades of green clothing items is cuddling up to a young woman (her granddaughter) who is hugging her. They are both smiling and happy. settled down in California. Polly worked in the food service industry most of her life. One notable event was when she served sitting President Ike Eisenhower at Cherry Hills Country Club Denver, CO and received a $100 tip from him. As the Executive Chef at North American Aviation in Downey, CA she prepared meals for company executives, as well as local and nationwide politicians. She also fed every astronaut active in the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo Space Programs that visited the Downey facility. During her years at North American she became active in the UAW Union, first as a Union Steward, and then as the Chairman of the fledgling Cafeteria Unit. She held that post until her retirement. She sat on the Executive Board of UAW Local 887 and attended numerous UAW National Conventions. She was instrumental in UAW negotiations with Canteen, and helped lead the way to a retirement benefit for Canteen workers.
