"The older I become, and as I co-parent a little person, I realize that life is short and precious. Who I am now, is not who I was years ago, nor who I will be moving forward, but many of my values remain… I am committed to holding space for people to feel heard, valued, and challenged. I strive to support people holistically, and believe physical, emotional, social and cognitive well-being matter, even if not everyone has the same access to it. Modern Day Griot is about storytelling. We all have a story to share so we can impact the present and future."
