Being able to celebrate these achievements with my amazing team and close collaborators last week in Denver was simply wonderful. I look forward to my continued involvement in the Society as Past Chair in 2026. 3/3

It has been an amazing 6 years, where I learned so much and felt so appreciated. I also feel I was able to contribute to several changes and developments in the Society and the field of cognitive psychology, sometimes in difficult times. 2/3

Last week was a very special week in my career, and my life. During the annual meeting of the @psychonomicsociety.bsky.social in Denver #psynom25, I received the Governing Board Chair Service Award. I have been a member of the Board for 6 years now, and was the Chair of the board this year. 1/3
