Back in Ohio!
As of July 1st, I accepted a visiting assistant professor position in the Oberlin College department of Biology. This means I have left my postdoctoral researcher position in the Cordoba lab at UNAM and my assistant researcher position in the Grether lab at UCLA. While I am sad that I will not see my friends in Mexico City and Los Angeles as often as before, I am excited to move on to this next stage in my academic career. I have been fortunate to acquire some adjunct teaching experience at UCLA and Occidental College and hope that this position at Oberlin will further prepare me for the tenure track academic job market. I will be teaching Freshwater Invertebrate Biology in the Fall Semester and helping with the second course of the year-long intro series during the Spring Semester. I am looking forward to an exciting year at Oberlin!
