‘I had weekly zoom quizzes with folks I miss all the time @nicolacoughlan & co. I met new friends & learned from them in the most 2020 way possible.. virtually, but these new friends I can’t wait to hug irl @ashleemariepreston and for all the hardships this year I do think our country is taking steps to heal and as painful as it is I’m hopeful for our future.
