PMRC2026 was amazing. So many great conversations and presentations! So glad I got the opportunity to go!
My flight home is delayed so I've upgraded from haunted Airbnb to my new short-term stay: the Dunkin' in Reagan National.

If you see me at PMRC2026 I promise I’m usually not this weird. It’s just that yesterday I woke up in Vancouver, got delayed in Toronto, arrived in Washington at midnight, and my accommodations are what I can only describe as “kinda haunted.”
