“I’m extremely thankful for my family this year because I became a mom in August! Watching her grow has been so much fun, and I am especially grateful that when I return to work in January, I won’t be too far from her because I’ll be working remotely.”

I’m also grateful for a nation, believing in science, ready to turn the corner to celebrate the beauty of nature and respect the worth of every human life. And I am also blessed to have a soon-to-be life partner in Dr. Melroy D’souza.”
