hiii. introducing myself here via a 4-part 🧵. I’m a former professional athlete (cyclocross, iykyk) who believes in the power of dance, poetry, and prison reform. I entered the decentralized world last fall and have been swimming in its deep end ever since.

Welcome to Farcaster! When I was an undergrad, a professor asked me to intern on a documentary for PBS that was being made about her work with a women's prison. I went to the prison regularly for a summer, meeting and photographing inmates and hearing their stories. While I don't work in prison reform, the experience touched me deeply. Looking forward to your content here.

thank you, @patriciaxlee.eth ! I love hearing this, and wish more people could experience something similar/adjacent, even if only once. the humanization is so important. how could something like that NOT stay with you? I helped start a creative writing program at a men’s prison, and now volunteer for a restorative justice program, among other things. point being: your experience, mine—however small or big—contributes to us seeing and treating one another as fellow humans instead of intangible others.
