I am incredibly excited to share that I have been accepted into the Institute for Youth in Policy Summer 2026 Fellowship Cohort! With just a 5% acceptance rate for this cycle, I am honored to join the next cohort of emerging policy leaders. I can't wait to endeavor in policy research, connection, and learning to build myself into a prepared cross-sector innovator. Looking forward to what's next!

Happy Thoughtful Thursday! 💜✨

Today is a reminder that every interaction matters. A kind word, a listening ear, an encouraging message, or simply believing in someone can make a bigger difference than you may ever realize. We all have dreams, goals, challenges, and moments when we wonder if we’re enough. Imagine how much stronger our communities would be if we intentionally chose to uplift, encourage, and support one another…

Happy Thoughtful Thursday! 💜✨

It’s been a week, we have several appointments locked down and are successfully getting life set up more. I’ve started more projects that I’m excited about, I believe that the projects have potential for real change but I’m hoping to get them set up with more people before I announce for real. I will say that one is a social community on Discord and several others. I’m hoping to create a connected community, not just random projects.

I’ll probably have most of it set up in a few days.

I’ve been putting all of my effort into these.

Everything is going quite well; I really am making progress and I’m hoping it’ll all come together! I hope I’ll have news about it soon.

It’s going to be a jam-packed month but a great month!

I wish everyone well; I’m fine but it makes me happy when plans work out!

It’s been a while since I last posted! My botched bilateral tibial osteotomies in 2023 ruined my life mostly. I put all things at a stop because I lacked motivation and was anxious about doing anything but things are coming together! I’m 18 years old now and we’re getting various integral doctors appointments done, I’m graduating, we’re getting a Cleveland clinic trip scheduled, and getting scans/procedures/new doctors set up. I’ve had a rough go of it but after my district dismissed me to tell me that no homeschooling ever got you a diploma; I’m officially graduating despite everything that happened. It’s going a lot better as of recent. My wheelchair that I got years ago, I still can’t use because it’s hard to set up five hours for wheelchair adjustment that’s an appointment that’s impossible to set up. I can’t sit up much because of how my hips are, my back of my chair needs to be very specific to fit me. We have several wishlists that I need to shrink but haven’t yet. We’re working on getting things for my graduation. It’s all scattered at the moment but things are good. My main missions at the moment are finding volunteering options virtually, working on creating a program that I’m researching how to do safely, and I don’t know; just thinking and figuring things out. We’re looking into hospitals in California too for my chronic pain and broken bones. This is scattered but life is doing better, I also have this new haircut that I love but I think that’s it. I’ll leave this off by saying that there’s a ton of new work by amazing people at Youth Journalism International. You can go check them all out below!⬇️

Sometimes the smallest act of kindness is the only light someone sees all day. A smile. A message. A moment of patience. You never know who’s grieving or barely holding on — be the tenderness they need. 💛✨

Mercy Today, Forgiveness Tomorrow!

Show people mercy, because sooner or later, it’s going to be your turn to need it.Looking at other human beings from a godly perspective may not always feel natural, especially when you’ve been hurt, betrayed, or disrespected. But that kind of mindset can save relationships, protect your heart, and prevent you from carrying unnecessary burdens for years.Many of us hold onto anger like it’s a form…

Walk through the lives of others with affection, respect, and—most of all—love. You never know the battles someone is facing. We didn’t come here to judge; we came to be that small grain of sand that eases someone’s burden. Being kind isn’t a huge sacrifice—it’s a choice that opens hearts and changes lives. Let’s be brave enough to show compassion today. ❤️

Unpopular opinion: Being kind is NOT weak… it’s rare.

Everyone you see is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Stress, trauma, pressure, survival mode ,it looks different on everyone. Imagine if instead of judging, we chose understanding. Instead of spreading hate, we chose respect.

Kindness costs nothing but can change everything. I’m choosing kindness and love. If you’re with me, drop a ❤️ and spread it forward.
