These words are not mine. These words are from my friend and colleague who is a Black man. Thank you Cameron for allowing me to share your strong words tonight. His voice matters and I honor him: I speak for both myself and my Admission colleagues when I say that we are deeply grappling withContinue reading “#amplifymelanatedvoices”

My fear is death. An intense, overwhelming, I’m going to pass out because I cannot breath fear. It wasn’t always this way for me. There is a naivety as a child – a blind faith in something beyond us. I minored in religious studies in college and it was during a mysticism of the eastContinue reading “Fear”

I’m immensely struggling to write my post today. I want to share more of my journey and I cannot figure out where to go. I want to tell you about heading to Hawaii (just the three of us) 48 hours later and how incredibly healing it was. I want to tell you more about NozzleContinue reading “And the blog is born…”

When I first jumped back onto social media about two weeks ago, I said that I had been on quite the journey and that I’d share more later. Tonight I’m going to start sharing that story a bit more. As many of you know, our daughter was attacked by our dog on May 30th ofContinue reading “Nozzle”

I’m starting off easy here by copying a post that I used to introduce myself and my S.t.a.r. Creative concept onto social media. I hope you will begin to follow me on this journey. I am starting something new! Since May of this past year, I have been on quite a journey. I’ll tell thatContinue reading “Getting started”
