Got to thank @gates_mcfadden in person for helping me get through the academic job market β€” and to express my hope that she will be given a leading role on a future Star Trek show. Thank you Gates, for being an example for us all ❀️✊🏽 #STLV #womeninSTEM #womeninfilm
Also this is totally beside the point but HER HAIR LOOKS AMAZING

And the fans want to see Gates in some capacity on Disco, in front or behind the camera! #STLV #StarTrekDiscovery
@gates_mcfadden has always made a point of remembering me and that I am a physicist and last year when she asked me how it was going, I started crying bc I was so exhausted & worried about academic stuff. She wrote me a powerful note that I have carried w/me everywhere. Thankful.
