Now that the celebrations are over and I finally have time to make this post, I am happy to announce that I defended last Tuesday and have a fancy schmancy PhD to show for it! I can't believe my 3.5 years in Dallas zoomed by so fast and it's already time for the next adventure.

@madhurarrao Visited India after two years for 25 days. Now I'm just focusing on a countdown to leave. As much as I love the people I left behind, I cannot deal with everyone tearing my life choices apart over every breakfast conversation.

I am sooooo excited for the holidays! This is probably the first time since becoming an adult that I do not feel guilty for taking a long vacation.

@SiddheshKumar19 After starting my PhD I realized just how much was wrong about the research culture in BITS. I was made to feel so incompetent all the time. My MSc Chemistry thesis advisor threatened to hold back my recommendation letters so I couldn't get into a PhD program.

Huge congrats to @Wendy_Tang24 , the best undergrad researcher I could have ever asked for in the @Gassensmith lab (and best Taco Tuesday companion, btw). She is currently applying to grad schools, watch out for this jack-of-all-trades scientist!

Yesterday we had the joy of watching our AT graduates walking across the stage. (Small grad pic as several of the F23 cohort had already graduated and then went on to AT and several decided not to walk.) Whoosh! 💫 #utdgrad #uteachdallas #utdscience
