Day to Day

It sounds cliche, but the only thing typical about my job is that it's atypical. I may be in a school talking to students about the perils of bullying, reviewing a school's youth programs with them, or at the government center with peers trying to cook up the next great way to help Hoosier youths! I also do the program's social media, so if there's something fun that I get to post on our accounts, that breaks up the day nicely, too! After work, then it's on to basketball practice at the school.

The Noise I Shed

""You'll never get anywhere" or "you can't do that" were themes I heard pretty often, especially as I struggled through college and several years after. It didn't hit me until almost 10 years out of school where I was really meant to be in the world."
