Grace became a primary caregiver for her grandparents at a young age, an experience that ignited her passion for elderly care. Raised by them, she intimately understands the challenges of the caregiving journey and the critical need for preparation and support.

Before Agewhale, Grace led the social enterprise Fair Employment Agency as General Manager, fighting forced labor for migrant domestic workers. This talk was presented at an independently organized TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.

This talk explores Sunset Crater, Arizona's youngest volcano, erupted 940 years ago, impacting the Sinagua people. Geologist Dr. Jeffrey Meyer will share its story and his work mapping the unique Bonito lava flow, notable for traveling uphill.

Understanding this flow aids hazard prediction and interpreting past flows on Earth, the Moon, and other planets. Dr. Meyer, a retired geology instructor, became curious about the Bonito flow, leading to detailed mapping via Lidar.

This program is made possible by Arizona Humanities and sponsored by Findlay Subaru of Prescott. Learn more at: Natural History Institute | Events | Donate | Instagram | Facebook
