Millennial’s Delight Blog

Millennial’s Delight is a whimsical lifestyle blog devoted to creative pursuits and the joy of new experiences. I created the term millennial’s delight as a modern day moniker for Renaissance Person: someone who is enchanted by the idea of constantly learning, growing, and developing new skills and abilities. Millennial’s Delight thus fancifully catalogues my artistic endeavors, my enjoyment of fun and delicious dining experiences like brunch and tea, my beautiful and yummy baking creations, my experiences with travel, leisure, and trying new things, and my musings on life and the pursuit of happiness. I hope this blog inspires your next hobby or trip and reminds you to be kind and generous, especially to yourself.

My current arts and crafts hobbies include scrapbooking, painting, and creatively repurposing used materials such as by making memorable wine bottles into wine candles. I also love creating really extravagant and delicious baked goods, especially for friends and family. Many of my crafting hobbies make for fun and joyful gifts. I have deeply enjoyed developing my crafting skills across a range of media, including bath bombs, soap, makeup, candles, jewelry, perfume, and more. As a chemist and an artist I bring a unique perspective to the art of pampering.

In addition to my artistic and creative side, I also have a scientific one. I am a chemist with research experiences across a variety of pharmaceutical applications, from small molecules to oligonucleotides to proteins to antibody drugs. My passion for helping others has led me to constantly strive to find new research opportunities that address unmet medical needs. More about my research and teaching experiences can be found on my academic website.

My social media across all platforms is @millennialsdelight. In particular, if you would like to see more of my craft photos, check out my Instagram. If you would like to check out more of my travel videos, check out my TikTok account. I look forward to continuing to grow as a scientist, artist, and crafter, and to cataloguing my adventures through my hobbies, travels, and new experiences as I do.
