Grateful for all the wonderful support during my PhD, especially from @surbhigrewal.bsky.social, which has been especially recognised with the Edward Cocking Award 2025 - the same one she won in 2011!!

This week, I found myself in my proudest moment yet - Implementing the @monogram-uk.bsky.social ECR pre-conference workshop. I really underestimated how it would feel to accomplish something like this, but I was in awe of the community we developed over the day.
