"I'm meeting people who are impacted by universal design as well. It's really cool how God puts people in my life who understand what I'm trying to accomplish, and they recognize the strategic value that having these types of services adds to their organization.”
"I like creepy and weird things. I like looking into the darkness and seeing what's there. I think that can help you see the light better."
