"Faith is a place of mystery, where we find the courage to believe in what we cannot see and the strength to let go of our fear of uncertainty."


I'm definitely feeling overwhelmed with emotions as this new way of life continues to move forward and it has been more of a challenge than I would have anticipated. It was really incredible to see just a number of my friends smiling faces through a virtual hangout online and hearing how each one of them are doing through this unusual time. I will be more than stoked to see everything slowly have themselves back to normal once this pandemic has chosen to leave and die off--- but I need to keep being a little more patient. I know that everybody in our world has come this far in hopes that every part of our lives will be at a point where being around your friends and loved ones is not any sort of major concern at all-- but we need to do our part in making this so curve not only flattened but if you ask me, I would much rather just legitimately crush it altogether. 



Shout Out:

Happy Birthday, Tylee!!!  It has legitimately just continued to be such a joy for me as I have gotten better acquainted with you this past year and a half. You have reminded me countless times about looking for the positives in life everyday and making the best of any situation that gets thrown at me. You've truly impacted so many lives of young adults with disabilities in more ways than you know and just being able to learn from an amazing person like you has been a dream come true!!! You are so great with what you do in this world and I am excited to continue getting to know you better as the many years go by. Hope you are having the most unforgettable birthday ever & feeling extra loved cause you truly deserve all the best in this world, if not more!!! :) #FriendsForever

Mini Entry


Earlier this afternoon, I received a phone call interview about becoming a member of this committee if I end up getting appointed to be on it. I was incredibly excited as well as unsure about what to do when they started to ask me questions that needed to be answered right on the spot. It was certainly one of those moments where I felt like I had to give it my best shot and feel hopeful for whatever is coming up next. I am grateful for what could end up being an incredible opportunity for me to keep developing my talents and abilities as a self advocate, but also as a person who wants nothing more than to see individuals like herself be treated fairly as much as anybody else. Please stay tuned for updates to come whenever I receive any further information and cannot wait to share legit updates with all of you soon!!!

Personal Message

One month down... One more left. Not really certain about whether this pandemic will turn itself just all the way around & leave us to a good point, where everything can slowly get back to normal. I am grateful for the comfort of my home and being surrounded with incredible people who would do any thing to help each other, regardless of whatever the situation is. I am slightly anxious for this wave of unknowns to be completely out of sight and leave me with an understanding-- that everything will be okay as soon as this crazy stuff passes itself on. It has taken over the world at such an unprecedented rate without even leaving you to think about how much this trial will either make us stronger or have a reason to believe this was completely something we needed to learn. I may never know what else it could have in store for all of us and trying to put ourselves back to normal--- once all of this becomes contained enough that we can feel safe around our friends again!!!


I am definitely missing them more than I would have ever imagined myself to and considering the unfortunate situation we are in-- I am gonna be more than relieved to hug the ones I genuinely love so much more than anything in this entire world, believe me-- I am most definitely anxious to get my friend time back once we can feel like this pandemic has left this world and look forward to so many amazing events that I feel incredibly stoked to be  part of within the next several months ahead. If ya must know--- I'd love to tell you about them afterwards because I need to make some legit memories with the people I haven't been able to see for some time!!! #ItsCatchUpTimeNextMonth 


So When Can We Leave Our Houses Government It's Gonna Be May ...


After this craziness gets behind us... I am certainly gonna be thrilled to spend quality time with my friends and getting to hug them again, which has been really hard for me not being able to do through out the last while. It is most definitely gonna feel like a very legitimate reunion that I've waited for to be a part of for such a long time and look forward to that unforgettable event once everything in life is settled down. This past week I have been able to chat with my friends over social media and seeing their faces again made me feel so good inside, knowing they are hanging in there as we continue this month with the unexpected. It really was such a treat getting to talk with each other and laugh despite the circumstances that our world is faced with right now... but we all enjoyed ourselves more than if it had not ever taken place. #WeGotThis #StayPositive #MuchLove
