Our #astrodon server is nearing its end of life, so I decided to move closer to my roots, and found my new home in swiss.social

A little #introduction:

I'm a #Swiss mountain girl who ended up studying #physics, pursued a #PhD in #astronomy, which I just recently defended!

I'll also be moving physically closer to home soon: In October, I’ll be starting a #fellowship at @esoastronomy in #Germany
