If you or anyone else Googles me, it’s all there. Going all the way back to high school. It’s all there. Standout girl’s basketball athlete who earned a scholarship to play women’s college basketball at the University of Michigan. Two-time LSJ player of the Year, Big 10 Honors, WNBA Draft, Basketball Coach, and then “I […]

If you didn’t, then I’m not doing this whole connection thing right. I’m writing about my Podcast today because the episode that is out this morning is incredible. It’s with Juliany Taveras, the incredible storyteller, playwright, poet, and artist who’s retelling of Morris Micklewhite and the Tangerine Dress will be showing at the Children’s Theater […]

A few minutes after I decided on the title for this blog post, the character on the TV show I was watching at the time said, out of nowhere, “It’s all a blur.” And then, later that same evening, I was on Twitter or X I guess, (whatever), and I saw that Drake or somebody […]

My sister tagged me in a Tik Tok video comment that read: You didn’t always know what you know now so that’s important to keep in mind when educating others. Ps I love you @Layne Ingram. She’s so right; and so much more right than she knows. I put a lot of pressure on myself […]

I’m just sitting here deeply reflecting on how different I am as a 41-year old man versus when I was a 16-year old *girl*. That was an interesting sentence to type. I don’t often think back about my childhood or teenage years. I just don’t unless it’s about basketball or a very specific story we […]

This wasn’t supposed to happen. It feels like being trapped in a painful, dark nightmare and I just want to wake up and you’ll be sitting in your chair and the people that I love no longer have their hearts split in two. I hope you knew how special and important you were – to […]

Of course I decide to come back to blogging in the midst of <maybe> the most nonsensical time in my life so far. I do have my daughter to thank for that though; I’ve been giving myself such a hard time for not writing, not having or finding the time to write and then being […]
