I found extreme joy in the sheer process of creating something that didn’t involve paragraphs and word counts. I discovered how much I enjoy painting. I saw […]

Her Grit Inspires Me
My daughter Julia is my hero. She fought back. She logged 700 volunteer hours to get to this place. And I couldn’t be more proud.
