I try hard to maintain a balance between my research and other aspects of my life. I am absolutely fierce about my time management. I'm a vegetarian. I love practicing yoga. I enjoy cooking, baking, and going to farmers markets. I made all my children's baby food. I have two beautiful children, who bring me much joy and laughter every day. I have a beagle that scolds me if I don't play with her enough.

Here are some of my favorite pictures taken recently.
