@L_tulipifera Congratulations Justin! Well deserved!

Official word that I’ve been promoted to Full Professor! Being a first-gen college student, with no support from parents, I owe a number of kindly professors and mentors who helped me. I’m also thankful to colleagues and mentees that I’ve continued to learn from.

@HamedMoftakhari @UofAlabama @bamaengineering Congrats!

All true!

@dyannick326 @UCFBiologyDept @UaDeptBSC @StarrlabUA1 @UA_AS Congratulations! Well deserved.

Found out early this morning that I was awarded the NSF #GRFP, supporting continued endeavors in the field of biogeochemistry. Beyond grateful of support and mentorship over the years from those at @UCFBiologyDept, Lisa Chambers/ABL, and here at @UaDeptBSC @StarrlabUA1 @UA_AS !

@paleoMunoz @NSF No surprise. Congratulations!

I am delighted to announce that my @NSF CAREER proposal is being recommended for funding! We'll be examining floodplain hydraulics and sedimentation to constrain paleoflood records and contribute towards safer and more sustainable alluvial river management strategies.
