I totally forgot to blog about our recent Luncheon Lecture speakers, Cody Fleming and Wesley Lefferts. Both two awesome speakers whom I really enjoyed their talk. I genuinely find these lectures so helpful and inspiring, and I am not sure if they realize that. The fact that two successful professors tell you that its ok for your journey in life to get bumpy is such a relief. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cody had some really cool slides and helped us as a group get involved in a conversation seeing how we would help stop traffic. He was also super funny and chill. As for Wesley, he presented his whole lecture in a New Zealand accent and had the craziest plot twist (it was fake). That was absolutely hilarious. Also, today a few of us went to go visit his lab which was super rad!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Til next time,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
