My lab and other @UBEngEd graduate students went on our annual skating outing at the Ice at Canalside this weekend. The adventures skaters learned how to skate backwards or how to spin while others were on the ice for the second time in their life. @UBengineering

Took my @UBEngEd Foundations of Engineering Education class on a field trip today to my “other office” and @DrCFaber came too! There were both conversations about conservation of momentum and learning as well as a lesson about how to stand up when we fall.

This past weekend I had a mini reunion with my grad school besties and while exploring Bannerman Castle in the middle of the Hudson River we found someone’s capstone design project! Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area. @edeitrick

My Great Uncle Robbie (my grandmother's bother) turned 100 years old last week and his big birthday party made the news. Robbie is one of the best story tellers I know.

As someone who struggles to write and does not think I am a particular good writer, I had three undergraduate students all at different times today tell me they feel they are better writers because of writing for my lab. I am both confused and proud?.

I am a figure skater who has lived in Minnesota, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, and New York. So this map basically just explains my life.

Since Covid is preventing my attendance at FIE, if you are there please go support my graduate student @DuncanMullins2 Sunday at 9am at the Culture of Teaching and Learning session. It's his first conference presentation and I am so sad I can't be there to watch! @UBEngEd.
