I passed my dissertation defense yesterday! I could not have done it without the support of my incredible friends and family, my advisor and mentor @mwalibali, my mentor @kbschloss, and my pink suit. What’s next for me? I’ll be an Efficacy and Impact Researcher at @WestEd.

I am thrilled to present Dr. Anna Bartel, who defended her dissertation yesterday! Her thesis focused on how people interpret bar graphs, and on how visual and textual cues can help people think about data distributions. Congratulations, @annabartel_ !
