Achievement Unlocked! My first Decolonizing the Music Room is in the books and I'm so glad I came. I served on the Creating Space For Us By Us panel with Celeste R Luna, Dion Flores, and Tina Huynh. I got to meet one of my academic idols Connie McKoy, meet so many people I've admired from afar IRL, and meet so many new friends. Special shout out to my to my good sis Tiffiny Reckley for being by my side through this wonderful journey.

The conversations were rich and engaging, the experience was meaningful, and I had so much fun! I even got play a Native American hand drum 😍

Thank you Brandi Waller-Pace for an AMAZING experience. I'll definitely be back!
