I received a baptism by tornado today, exactly 10 days after starting my new job as Assistant Provost and Campus Director at UGA Griffin. Can't wait for daybreak tomorrow to survey the full extent of damage and start the cleanup. Thankfully, we didn't suffer any injuries among those who remained on campus. Hundreds of downed trees and powerlines meant some employees were 3-4 hours late getting home.
Great crowd for opening day of the #MississippiState #RowCropsShortCourse 2022. This is the premier meeting for #agriculture #producers in the #Midsouth US.
Current Head of the Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Entomology and Plant Pathology at Mississippi State University.

I start as Assistant Provost and Director of the UGA Griffin campus on January 1, 2023. Because of the new job, my twitter account of seven years was going to be mothballed anyway, so this was the perfect time to explore a new platform.
