Hello to my new followers!!! My name is Ashley. I'm a astrochemist, planetary scientist, and science communicator. Let me tell you a little bit about me. I received my BS in Chemistry at @ChicagoState University. I began my interest in astronomy through inquiry.
I was amazed at how I could do astronomy as a chemist. This led me to two internships at Harvard and Johns Hopkins. I'm extremely active with sci comm through @AdlerPlanet!! My mentor, sister, and co-advisor is @shaka_lulu! (If you want to know how to be a REAL ally...see them!)
@shaka_lulu and I were featured on @katiecouric's series thank you notes! https://www.today.com/paid-content/women-thank-women-who-inspired-them-face-anything-t173016
My one of besties is @astrochicana! She recently received a dual BS in Astronomy and Physics from @UTAustin with distinctions in DEI and Research. We throw haymakers in social justice together and one day will open our planetarium with our dear friend @keshawnrants!!!
Another one of my besties is @onlyayanna_! She's an amazing fellow astrochemist and promoter of WOC in STEM. She works with @AlxndriaTH3Gr8 and @Astrenome for the WOC project! A program for WOC by WOC who want to attend graduate school.
I also highlighted Black Junior Astronomers to give them a platform and let them know that I am and so many others are appreciative of their work. https://twitter.com/i/events/1101571329592119297
This summer, I'll be interning for NASA Goddard and continuing my Black History series. I'm expanding it to ALL Black STEM students and postdocs!
So welcome to my page!
