Had a great time at #ACC2023 in San Diego, where I learned a lot from cutting-edge research and met some amazing optimization and control people! Also big thanks to @StemFyi professional development grant for supporting the trip.

Sunset yesterday, March 22, marked the start of #Ramadan. Listen to Ali Bhatti, a Ph.D. candidate in science and math education, describe what Ramadan means to him and finding his Muslim community at Berkeley. bit.ly/3FMGp16

So great when vision becomes a reality. Thankful for the @grad_diversity team buying into this vision and the various campus colleagues and offices like @UCBDiversity that made this space a reality. #DiversifyThePhD

Curious what senior grad students wish they had known at the beginning of grad school? Attending graduate school is a great career move, and it’s important to start planning your next steps early to make the most of your time here.

We had a party and ‘a few’ grad students showed up. Great to meet so many of you all outside of Zoom today! And the food lasted this year. Great seeing smiles and excitement for the year ahead!!

I would like to thank @STEMFYI, @grad_diversity and @PPG for awarding me a STEM*FYI technology grant. This has helped me to save my back and some of my joints as a I create a more productive and ergonomic work environment at home.
