Incredibly honored to receive a Strongwheeled Together award in a couple of weeks in Las Vegas! It’s been a beautiful struggle in recent years, however moments like this offer positive reflection and affirmation that I am on the right path. Thank you United Spinal for this recognition and I look forward to connecting with everyone soon!

This award presented by United Spinal Association honors exceptional individuals from the spinal cord injuries and disorders (SCI/D) community who have demonstrated achievement in the areas of Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Performing Arts, Sports and Recreation, Visual Arts and Writing, and Youth Leadership and Community Impact.

Great vibing at the The Future Ancient Soul Healing Festival yesterday!

ABOUT THE EXHIBIT

Sound Check! The Music We Make
October 15, 2023 through September 14, 2024
Special Exhibition Gallery

This exhibition explores the role music has played in Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander lives & communities as an element of cultural heritage/identity, a form of personal/creative expression, a commercial industry, a connecting/healing force, and an integral part of thriving communities and culture.

The interactive exhibit includes behind the scenes-photos, framed artworks, podcasts, artifacts, storylines, audio, and video that feature Asian artists’ expressions of cultural identity.

Sound Check! The Music We Make reflects the Wing Luke Museum’s mission to highlight stories from the Asian American experience while connecting the community to the dynamic history, cultures and art of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders through vivid storytelling and inspiring experiences to advance racial and social equity.

I went from living in a world of madness where I was the only chair user to being in a room with several dozens of others like me, navigating forward one curb and one day at a time. It’s not just a support group, it’s a community, it’s connecting with friends and family, and it’s a tribe for those who can feel just a little less alone. Happy 10th anniversary to The Here and Now Project!

Today we had the great privilege in performing and showing solidarity for equitable pay for City Workers! Biggup to the 11 unions representing the heart of Seattle, those who keep the city moving- demanding fair compensation in an ever-increasingly expensive city!
