On Friday I received the most humbling news that I’ve been TENURED @ucdavis @ucdchem! I’m overwhelmed with joy and gratitude. As a #firstgen raised in a low-income single-mother household, #LatinXchem Prof, can't help but be immensely proud of the village that got us here! (1/4)

We are seeking to hire a postdoctoral research associate with expertise in the on-surface synthesis of graphenic/PAH materials and polymers. Pursuits will involve the synthesis of nanographenes and graphene nanoribbons, with a focus on their optical and electronic properties.

My first first-author paper of my postdoc is out now in JACS! We explored activating reactive carbon capture in amines using Ni-N/C catalysts, exploring how the speciation of the electrolyte and active sites affected the mechanism/performance of RCC. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Being part of the Cottrell Scholars community is a great privilege. We are deeply grateful for the consistent and pivotal support @RCSA1 has provided our program at every critical juncture.
RCSA has awarded $800,000 to 11 #CottrellScholars through its RCSA Bridge Awards, an emergency initiative to help stabilize strong research programs that have experienced disruptions due to abrupt changes to their federal funding. wp.me/pgj04D-ayx

The GRC Electrochemistry Conference is one of my very favorites. We have not been able to accept any applications into the conference yet per GRC guidelines. We will start making acceptances ASAP in September so folks can firm travel plans. Apply soon! grc.org/electrochemistry-con…

Excited to share our joint work with the Whittaker-Brooks Lab! Chalcogenides are a versatile platform for probing electrochemical reactivity through active-site modulation. Kudos to Edwin Miller & @KingstonChem for the collaboration! #EnergyMaterials pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

I saw it firsthand at the #Lindau2025 Nobel Laureates meeting--international young scientists welcomed and recruited in Germany and elsewhere. Some of the very best are leaving, and many of the best will no longer come.
