Phoebe Dubisch is currently mentoring in Medical Illustration with Barrow Neurological Institute. She is working with Medical App Developer, Liza Knipscher, to build informational apps and games; as well as observing other illustrators and 3D modelers. She has also been preparing for the start of the Yale Summer Program in Astrophysics (YSPA) being held at the Leitner Family Observatory and Planetarium where she will be spending the month of July at Yale University modeling extragalactic supernova explosions. At the moment, Phoebe is in Spokane, Washington for the Unitarian Universalist General Assembly to present her Radically Inclusive Pathway to Membership, a deeper and more accessible model for the future membership in Unitarian Universalist Congregations everywhere. In her little spare time, she has been learning two different coding languages and completing art commissions for those who have donated to her GoFundMe that supports her YSPA fees.

Oxbow opened me up to what was out there in the world to go out and grab, and gave me so much that I take with me everywhere I go, with everything I do.

At Oxbow, I got to try inquiry-based learning for the first time. This allowed me to control the amount of rigor and the depth of research in my topic, as well as picking a topic that I found most interesting. From going through this new process of learning, I feel excited to go back to the rigor of my sending school to apply the inquiry-based perspective to my classes.

I learned to drop all previous assumptions I had about people because I had never met anyone like the other students at Oxbow. For the first time, my peers and their insightful thinking inspired me. For example, during the ‘Einstein’s Dreams’ presentations, I kept looking around the room thinking, I can’t believe all of these students are talking the way I think.
