our lab is a safe space

We are fortunate to live on a diverse planet, biotically, culturally, and intellectually. The Marx Lab and UNM Herbarium provide a safe and enjoyable learning environment regardless of your race, ethnicity, gender identities or expression, sexual orientation, religion, socio-economic status, citizenship status, age, or any other unique identity you bring.

I value this diversity deeply and enjoy when I have opportunities that allow me to think about the world differently. I invite you to communicate any disagreements, questions, or concerns. I am still also constantly learning; we are partners in the exchange of knowledge in this group, and I will do all that I can to help you succeed.
