“I am thrilled to thank the ASECS funding and award bodies who made it possible for me to receive a Traveling Jam Pot award to assist with the costs of attending the 2023 ASECS conference in St. Louis, MI. Because of the generosity of those who donate to this award, I was able to put $300 toward flight costs and receive free conference registration; both which made it possible for me to attend the conference (truly, as a grad student, I remember not being able to afford dinner my first night there as I waited for my paycheck to deposit!!), chair my first ever panel “Digitally Mapping the Eighteenth Century,” present a paper on Dr. Anita Guerrini’s “Tangling with Natural History” panel, and developed a working relationship with Dr. Benita Blessing, who helped me see how I could get involved with ASECS. As the current Graduate and Early Career Caucus Chair, I think my ability to have attended this ASECS is what brought me to the GECC and got me involved.”
