April-October Update

Difficult to update the webpage when you're having the craziest / busiest / funnest (sp?) year of your life. Here are some of the many cool things I got into since my last update.MARCH 2018:Attended another Ocean Memory workshop / meeting / get-together. I drove up with a new Ocean Memory friend, we surfed, we then picked up another friend (after her special birthday) and drove into the Santa Cruz mountains (where Djerassi is). I'm very lucky to be involved with these weird, wonderful, and crazy smart people. Next stop: Catalina Island (I'm organizing!)group-2018-SawtoothCollective-1img_2251.jpgIMG_2254IMG_2234IMG_2243APRIL 2018:I officiated a wedding in Pioneertown, CA.IMG_2455May 2018:Attended the Tropical Pacific Observing System 2020 planning workshop in Boulder, CO.IMG_2550JUNE 2018:Attended the National Academies Keck Futures Initiative mid-grant meeting.IMG_2784Also visited some friends at JCVI to talk about a new project. This will be some straight-up incredible stuff—if it works!IMG_2645JULY 2018:I received a mini-fellowship to learn about "paleo pCO2" methods. In my proposal, I asked to make some preliminary measurements of boron isotopes with my buddies James Rae and Will Gray in St. Andrew's Scotland. We got some very interesting results and I also went surfing in the Atlantic.
Gave a talk at UW—the University of Washington. I had been waiting for this day for a long time. Gave the best talk of my life, had many great conversations, ate some good food, enjoyed some fall foliage... so many great friends.IMG_3312
