Other Things Worth Knowing...
I don't take myself too seriously, but I do take the work I do (whatever it is) seriously. I believe more than one thing can be true at once, and maybe that's because I'm mixed, or because I grew up in a micro-neighborhood that was on the border of two very different and quintessentially San Francisco neighborhoods - the periphery of neighbor and hood (#UpperNoe, #IYKYK). I never intended to get into education, thought I could save the world with writing and am a CisHet Femme who was raised in a community of activists, artists and the occasional Drag Queen. I started college in update NY the week of 9/11, tried to go abroad my junior year but SARS1 broke out, and graduated during the 2005 recession. I applied to the graduate program I completed in 2009-10 because it didn't require the GRE, so my academic career was certainly not boring. There are a million more things I could say, but here's a photo of "who I am" from a professional development training I did in 2018 that feels like a decent snapshot of how I'd describe myself over the years. |
Someone I used to work with took this, sorry I can't remember who?
