The "space" themed gift basket my friends made me for my PhD defense 🥹

So excited to share an interview with Dr. Janice Lee (@janiceleeastro) I wrote with @astrobites to celebrate AAPI month! Read about her journey and amazing work with the Habitable Worlds Observatory and PHANGS here: astrobites.org/2025/05/28/int…
Successfully defended my PhD two weeks ago and became Dr. Lee! So grateful to my advisors and mentors, and all the friends and family who flew to Chicago to watch my defense and have been there for me the past six years🥹 Going to miss Chicago a lot ♥️
