Took a little time off work this morning to meet prospective grad students and hear from my classmates in @vt_alce about research opportunities, self-care, and the importance of relationships in grad school.

I make #evaluation fun! Thanks for the support @japrovo. I would love to work with new clients in 2020, so if you're asking: "how is this workforce program going", or "what's the impact of our economic development programs" I would love to buy you a cup of local coffee and chat!

So I tried to clarify what was happening in my logic model by turning it into a #pathway model, and all I got is spaghetti that I can't disentangle. HALP @tgarchibald!
