Honored to win 1st prize in the Society for Humanistic Anthro's prose contest and for this short story about a boy and his cow to find a great home! Set in a fictional Indian town, the story imagines cross-species companionship amidst the rise of religious nationalism. Out today!

Is #Covid #PTSD a thing for healthcare workers? You betcha. #graphicmedicine.
Happy July 1st to all the new interns out there. It’s hard to remember when you’re tired, overwhelmed, or hungry, but never underestimate the power of a small acts of kindness to give you a recharge. Be kind to your patients, your colleagues, and yourself.
