Outspoken Introvert/Listener/Thinker Advocate & Ally - Social Justice✊🏿, DV 💜 Running for my life- literally & figuratively Professional: licensed social worker with 20 plus years in child welfare- adoption focus. In addition to supervising direct practice, I train adoption assessors and supervisors. I also conduct diversity training. Personal: I run. A lot. Sometimes far, never too fast. It’s exercise. It’s energy. It’s therapy. It’s how I’ve connected to so many great and interesting people, myself included. Distances conquered: 5k, 10k, 13.1, 26.2, 25k, 50k, 50 mile, 100k...100 miles on deck. Proud. black. cisgender. straight. adoptive mother. divorced. Christian I think and I write far more than I prefer to speak but will quickly evacuate my comfort zone to speak up and out for domestic violence, racism, sexism, homophobia and any other social injustice. 💜✊🏿🚺🏳️‍🌈
