I am planning to become an integrated dance instructor this summer and go to visit my friend's boarding school for disabled people in Uganda.  While my passion is studying the intersection of disability rights and global justice and I plan on persuing a PH.D that focuses on that, I pay the bills through public speaking and presenting.  Soon to add teaching dance to other disabled children and adults!  As a kid and teen, I wrote all the time and being here is basically all part of step 1 of my plan to control the literally world by maintaining an ongoing column in the ragged edge magazine and writing the break out novel which will appear on Oprah's book club (in my dreams anyhow.)   You can learn even more about me by clicking here
