Friending/Introduction meme! Because everyone needs more acafriends, right? Right?

Here's a suggested format:

Name/Handle/User Name/Etc:
What You Do (i.e., grad student, adjunct, librarian, etc):
Specialization (discipline, subfield, whatever level of granularity you want):
Research/Teaching Interests:
Geographic Location:
Other Stuff You Do (i.e., the stuff that keeps you from going crazy):
Anything Else You Feel Compelled To Add:

Eh, well. Hopefully it will improve my employability--the program does have a good employment record--and my advisor and work experience have been great. It was awfully expensive work experience, though, especially since most of my classes were useless.

I am definitely not going into teaching, aieee! Not formal teaching, anyway.

I may make an overdue Ada Lovelace Day post about my science/tech background/job after I have my diploma in hand.

Ada Lovelace Day post (however belated) sounds pretty nifty.

There was a cool quasi-meme going around last week for women in STEM to represent, and I liked reading other people's posts. I thought about doing one, but I'm still a bit cagey until I have that diploma because given my location, it would be very easy to figure my program. My program which is toxic. (The kind of toxic where current and former employees cryptically complain about it on Facebook! It's great! /sarcasm)

I was also thinking about a nice Ada Lovelace Day post about some of my favorite women scientists, but I didn't get to that either. Maybe next year.

Don't worry I know how that feels! *hugs* And in MS which is too small of a state to have any way out either. *sigh*
