Teen Outreach Awards Night

I am honored to accept the Inclusion Award at the Washington Health System's Teen Outreach Awards Ceremony. I cannot even begin to give adequate thanks & praise to our students and my mentor, Dr. MaryJo Podgurski.

50 Shades of Social Justice: An original play produced by the "Real Talk Players". Take a bow--you rocked!

My favorite part of the night was the talk back session with the student cast and crew. What a brave and beautiful group of young people. You inspire me and have rendered this usually verbose teacher speechless--Bravo!

I'm proud to be the faculty advisor of the Trinity High School Gay-Straight-Alliance. It is an honor to be counted as a mentor, ally, and advocate for LGBT youth.

Thanks again to my mentor, Dr. MaryJo. I'm forever in your debt and will always be at your side.
