  2. I created a STEM holiday activity for my son’s kindergarten class - a holiday train w/ simple circuit & LED light. I learned a lot about (basic) engineering & how to make a slightly too complicated activity accessible, & hopefully sparked some students’ interest in #STEM. #SciMom #AcademicParent #STEAM

  3. At rock climbing club today

    Kiddo #1's friend: Mrs. Elliott! Can you please unhook me?

    Kiddo #1: actually, it's Dr. Elliott

    Me (aloud): it's ok. Either is fine.

    My brain: <damn straight kiddo #1! I worked hard for that title!>

I particularly like #PathIntegral approaches. All my work is orientated towards #RenewableEnergy materials.

    My favourite programming languages are #C and #JuliaLang. #Unix #CommandLine #HackThePlanet
