WHAT BIRD AM I HEARING? Is a question that I have asked myself soooo many times. Unlock a new world right before you with the Merlin Bird ID app by Cornell University. Try it out and let me know what birds are in your neck of the woods!

I want my tax dollars to go to make sure everyone in my community has healthcare, housing, and food.

I do not want my tax dollars being spent on slaughtering people.

This is not a radical idea.

UNC Diverting DEI funds to police sends one helluva symbolic message. The summer of 2020 β€œracial reckoning” cost way more than we received in return. The backlash is leading to a bona fide police state & unearthing virulent anti-blackness. newsobserver.com/news/local/edu…

Inmates do billions of dollars of work for companies and governments each year.

A landmark trafficking lawsuit alleges many are being kept in prison because the business is just too good. The suit says it seeks β€œto abolish a modern day form of slavery” bloomberg.com/news/features/…

Here's an image of 50+ acre properties in Southern Maryland highlighted in yellow.

The big takeaway:

Working together on a landscape scale is key to connecting up habitat for wildlife.

Which is why I'm excited that this Wednesday, May 15, at noon...

My take away was live your life with no regrets. When you die you’ll be a footnote or an email at work.

Never give up your health for work. I’ve spoken to a lot of dying people, none have told me they wished they only worked more.

Enjoy every sunset and rainy day.

Another reminder to black students: YOU are not them.

They will get off with misdemeanors & 'college hijinx' charges.

YOU will end up with felonies.

Don't forget what you were taught at home: The stakes are simply higher for you.

The fact that I'm about to be a 4th year PhD is really nerve racking. This time passed faster than expected. Going to try to put myself on a strict schedule to make sure I gain all the skills I want before I leave.

2020: attacks on BLM
2022: attacks on CRT
2023: attacks on β€œwoke”
2024: attacks on DEI

It’s the same thing, different year: anti-Blackness and white supremacy.

Lessons learned here: Don't make assumptions. Talk about money with your colleagues and community members. Know your worth. Support the union organizing and other activism happening on campuses across the country. Make sure no one feels alone as they move through this system. ✊

My research uses spatial analysis to find gaps in environmental datasets and one thing I've always wanted to do is help fill the gaps by engaging & training people to use participatory tools. My first training workshop on 4/14 was a success, and I can't wait to do this again πŸ₯Ή

Got my first of the year Black and White warbler last Friday after leaving class on NC State's Centennial campus. Can you see it? Excited to see what other species I can find on campus 🀩.

Publication dropped today! We investigated how novel colorations in different wildlife species elicit varying responses in people influencing human-wildlife interactions. Major thanks to all my co-authors especially my co-lead Sam Kreling. Great job!
