Thanks to everyone who supported our team and helped us raise about $2,800 for the American Cancer Society! As you can see, a bunch of former elementary school teachers charged with getting crafty made for a gosh-darn pinktacular poster-making gone-wild “Hope for the Ta-tas!” campsite.
Hurray for the School of Ed!
About to kick things off - luckily it was a beautiful day to walk around a track about 500 times =)

Only a few more weeks until my first year as a doctoral student ends and I head to DC and internship-land for the summer. Before I take off, here’s what I’m attempting to squeeze into my calendar:

Only 192 days until Relay For Life - one of the most popular ways for communities to honor those who have battled cancer while fundraising for the American Cancer Society.
At UNC, Relay for Life is a Really Big Deal. Dozens of students organize the logistics, and hundreds of teams sign up to participate. This year, the School of Ed team will be co-captained by yours truly, which means that cancer might as well just give up now.
I know my strengths, and I’m pretty certain that one of them is taking care of business/making it happen/getting shit done. When it comes to supporting a worthy cause, multiply that times 10. Or maybe 100. Who knows? I’m unstoppable!
If you would like to contribute to my general unstoppable-ness, please consider donating to the cause here:
You will note that my team is already in first place – and the event isn’t until April. Thanks in advance for making it a little easier for me to look good. And for vital research to continue. Win-win!
