description I engage with the impact of disruptions on my work life, and consider the transformative potential that these disruptions offer. I focus on four parts of my life: as a researcher, teacher, administrator and editor. In each, I examine the nature of the disruption and the way I deal with it.

Rather than lamenting the inconvenience of a crisis, I prefer to celebrate the opportunity to do better.
