She disappeared on June 22nd, 2025, while hiking in the Angeles National Forest, Los Angeles County, on a well traveled trail. I know where that place is, I've been to that spot. Reports say she was hiking with at least one friend and companion. The friend was roughly 30 feet ahead, turned to check on her, saw her smile and wave that she was fine. That a short time later, looked back again and she was gone. Despite intensive searches, no confirmed trace of her has been found, and her case is now one of the central examples of missing or dead scientist cluster being reviewed by federal agencies.
