Bio

Learning Disabled woman who’s gone back to. college after being shot down in her computer science degree in the 90s. Tech genius, lover of good poetry and music (all music), admirer of reason and justice.. I hate when things go wrong but especially when it’s to a person. my politics and sense of justice are extraordinarily intersectional and heavily guided by my rebellion against ableism. I should also say my leanings are issue not party based. am in a complicated headset as a trans non-binary woman. I don’t, and in many cases won’t fit into your narrative.

Contrary to popular belief I’m nothing to scuff at.

I am highly intersectional and very interested in civic engagement, social justice, and equality and equity for all.

I am currently pursuing my BS in Legal Assistant Studies (you know the road. Less traveled).
