The next adventure...

So the life of an academic is to never be settled I guess. It looks like our next adventure will take us all the way across the country to New Haven, Connecticut. It's a short 2,881 miles away.


Daddy has gotten a Postdoctoral Researcher position (aka "postdoc") at Yale University. It goes without saying, but Lily and Mommy are very proud.

The schedule for moving is still a little tentative but Daddy may finish his PhD sometime this spring/early summer and then we might move in late summer/early fall. It is pretty clear that this time next year we'll be in a different city, on a different coast, and certainly in different weather (it was chilly in the 60s today in Los Angeles).

The life-goal is for Daddy to get a job as a professor at one of the University of California schools (perhaps Mommy & Daddy's alma mater?). This is a very lofty goal but we are sure it's within reach.

  1. Great pictures at Disneyland! We had such a wonderful time with her too at Thanksgiving! (And you and Scott of course)
    We are sure going to miss you when you go to Yale but we are very proud too! Thank you for the website about Postdoctoral researcher.
    Love,

  2. We are so excited for you ...or maybe just excited to come visit you on the East Coast. I know you guys are going to have fun over there and in the end, the move will be worth it. Again, congrats to Scott!
