Feels really good to be a part of @gdocexpo.com and the small mighty team we have 💜

Welp I 100% did not expect to be crying but here I am absolutely in tears. In an especially hard year with all the attempts to dismantle support for equity initiatives, I've personally been staving off feelings of hopelessness. So it means a lot to know that we are making an impact. Thanks 💖

So thankful to be apart of this incredible team doing incredible work in this industry!! 🙏💖
