Dr. Margaret Johnston (they/them) has been a vocal (pun intended) participant in UU churches for the past five years. Originally from Chicago, Margaret has continued to move their way westward throughout their graduate studies, but has always found time to return for Summer sailboat racing. When not running physics simulations for their research, Margaret spends their time knitting, singing, and discovering new dishes to cook in their beloved Dutch oven.
